Freestanding dolmen chamber, oriented E / W, set of 4 equally high stones.
Rectangular and without a proper chamber opening.
Internal dimensions approx. 1.6 x 0.8 m., height approx. 0.7 m.
A large part of the former capstone, damaged in both N and S is resting
on top of the uprights.
Chamber is partially filled with old field stone, though not visible from outside.
The chamber is very close to another barrow, a 4m high mound.
