Remains of a small rectangular dolmen still deeply embedded into the surrounding ground (or remains of its flatened barrow). Clear chamber size approx. 1,5m x 0,7m.
Three out of four orthostats are preserved largely in situ. The orthostat of the western narrow side is missing. An overgrown slab just to the east of the chamber possibly is the moved capstone.
Slightly difficult access in rough terrain to the NNW of some wooden summer houses.
