The North Tipp Inventory places this beside St. Kierans well. However it is actually 500m down the road at what locals call the "knee" of the road. This bullaun is where St. Kieran is meant to have knelt down leaving his knee print.
The bowl itself is pretty small, about 200mm diameter by maybe 150mm deep.
