It is estimated that the millstone was built in the 1930s as a gathering place for villagers to beat the millstone, and it is also called 'Yeonjabanga,' 'Yeonjamae,' and 'Dolmaebanga'. A horse or an ox would pull and operate the stone connected to the frame of the millstone to remove husks from grains or crush wheat. This farming equipment was popular in rural areas. It was designed to rotate smoothly by placing a smaller round stone on its side on a round flat stone plate. In addition to its primary function of pounding and grinding grain, Yeonjama also served as a strong cooperative force, fostering mutual assistance among the members of the Yeonjamae associations surrounding Yeonjama. Originally established and utilized as communal property within the village, it is now preserved and maintained as a Cultural Property Material of Gyeonggi-do.

It is currently located in the main hall (Daeungjeon) of Seonbeopsa Temple. The statue wears a crown with a chignon at the center. The face has angular features, while the rounded chin, sharply arched brows, and small eyes are depicted for a formalized appearance. The neck partially displays three thick lines, and the robe is folded in a unique shape over the right shoulder. The mudra of the statue is indistinct, with the right hand placed on the knee and the palm of the left hand facing upward. The four fingers are slightly folded, with only the thumb positioned on the inner side of the palm. It is unique in that there is a platform-like pedestal below the knees. This stone Buddha statue is made of zeolite from Gyeongju. The exact year of its creation is unclear due to the absence of excavated relics, but it is presumed to have been made in the late 17th century to early 18th century based on its characteristics, such as the detailed clothing folds on the back and the gentle expression on the face. Considering the statue’s material and the proportions, such as the height ratio of the knees, it is possible that the statue was crafted in Yeongnam or Honam. It holds great value as a rare example of a seated stone bodhisattva from the late Joseon Dynasty.
