The Bull Stone Sculpture

Here, a bull sits, seemingly rising from the ground, sleeping contentedly. The stone is said to be connected to the legend of St. Patrick, who was once teased by his pet bull while building his church. Whether or not this was true, the story lends an air of mysticism to the place.The surroundings are quiet, and there is a small bench where you can rest while you reflect on the legends and myths that surround this place. The art installation is not necessarily a major highlight, but it adds an interesting touch to the landscape and gives your tour a small, unexpected detail.The road here is easy to ride, with only a few small inclines, so if you have time for a quick stop, this is a nice place to take a break and prepare for the next leg.

A Bull monument has been erected with a bull (guardian of the Bull stone) sleeping contently! Legend associates the stone with St Patrick, patron saint of Ireland, and his pet bull that had frequently annoyed him whilst he was trying to build his church.
