The basin is at the very top of the stone, almost hidden by the overhanging ivy.

The basin of this large stone is about 35cms in diameter. The water was putrid, a cure for many skin complaints I’ve no doubt.

Grange Irish bullaun

Easy to find down a laneway in this townland, it’s a large boulder, over a metre high with the large basin cut into the top of the stone.

The water was rancid in the .35 of a metre diameter .17 of a metre deep bowl. I was taken aback by, on arrival, my companion immersing both hands into the bowl and stirring up the stink. I asked him why he did that and he said because I can. Good enough.
