Remains of a rectangle shape Long Barrow in N-S orientation.
Only 8 kerb stones of the east long side are in situ, plus 2 of the west.
A little at the side, a most likely former capstone is lying flat on the ground.
It is famous for the now fainted carvings. Seven wheels are hardly visible,
and some cup marks. The wheels have been carved long after the original
chamber was build, it is assumed that they originate from the bronze age.
