Oval chamber oriented NE-SW, measuring appr. 3m x 2m.
The tops of all (4) orthostats of the NW long-side and one orthostat on each narrow side are preserved in situ as well as at least one orthostat of the SE longside. Several other stones are scattered around and none of the capstones is in situ.
The passage measured at least 4m. Three orthostats are preserved in situ as well as one moved capstone.
