The conditional phrasing is unavoidable: when the site was inspected in 2000, following extensive field clearance in the area, no trace of the stone could be found. What had been described was a rectangular piece of quartz, roughly 30 centimetres by 71 centimetres, sitting on top of a mound in reclaimed pasture, with a depression that collected water. That water, according to local tradition, held curative power over warts.

The stone, if it survives somewhere beneath disturbed ground or relocated during agricultural work, would be classified as a bullaun stone, a term for boulders or slabs bearing one or more cup-shaped hollows, usually worn or deliberately carved. They are found throughout Ireland, often near early Christian sites, and the water that collects in their basins has long been associated with healing, blessing, or cursing, depending on the tradition. The wart cure attributed to this particular stone places it within a very widespread folk-healing pattern, where the afflicted person would rub the wart against the stone or apply the collected water directly. What makes the Dromore example notable is the material: quartz, a stone that carried its own layer of significance in Irish prehistoric and early medieval culture, frequently used in ritual or funerary contexts.

The mound on which the stone reportedly sat adds another layer of interest. Whether it was a natural rise or something of archaeological significance is not recorded, and the clearance work that preceded the 2000 inspection makes the question harder to answer. The stone itself may be gone, buried, or simply moved a short distance and unrecognised. It exists now mainly as a piece of local memory and a brief notation, a place that was, by any measure, more present in tradition than it ever was in the landscape.
