The townland of Lakafinna, to the south of Bullaun, contains the local water scheme and an old castle. According to local folklore, an unused tunnel runs from the castle to a point close to a house in Ballyara.[citation needed] The river which flows through Bullaun previously contained quantities of fresh water salmon.[citation needed] These salmon stocks have, however, been impacted by overfishing and pollution.[citation needed]

The village also contains St Patrick's church, a pub called the Harbour Bar and is home to the Corcoran's Turoe stone. The home ground for the Sarsfields GAA team is in Bullaun.[citation needed]
