Description Pole aerial view from the NE.
East-West oriented chamber, measuring appr. 6,5m by 3,5m largely embedded into remains of its barrow. Eastern and western chamber endstones are preserved in situ as well as two orthostats of each longside: N3, N4 and S1 and S4. Three stones are not in situ cannot be attributed. Two capstones are robbed, the easternmost is preserved, but turned and slipped into the chamber. Entrance (and possible passage) probably was located between orthostats S3 and S4.
