Lorrha

Bullaun Stone

bawn79 Nov 7, 2007

These two bullaun stones are in the RC church in the village of Lorrha beside a Dominician Friary.
It looks to me as if they may have been transported from elsewhere.
The one on the left is about 300mm diam by 200mm deep. The one on the right is bigger and may be two bowls that has merged into one.
Diameter 600mm by 250mm deep.
