At barrows foot a ring of 35 kerb stones 0.75-1.25 meter tall.
In the middle a chamber set of 8 uprights
and two passage stones (the northern overthrown).
Passage extends towards east.
Over chambers N-W corner part of a blown capstone.
Chambers size two meters in NW-SE, 1.70 m in N-W,
1.10 m wide S-E.
No one seems to take care for the monument, despite the location
right at a street with family houses. Tall grass hides all the kerb stones. |
