Located at the base of the round tower is a rather large boulder. In the top of this boulder are two bullauns, one large and one smaller and more shallow.
The stone itself is quite massive, probably measuring 1.4m in length, 1.2m wide and the same high. For the size of this monster boulder even the larger bullaun is quite small.
Someone has kindly daubed orange paint on one side of the rock.
Anywhere else this would be a superb bullaun stone, but the magnificence of the round tower looming over it does distract you (in a good sort of way).
