Chamber measuring appr. 6m by 3,2m [1]. It is halfway exposed, the dry-walling is robbed, but all ortostats are preserved and in situ, except for the western entrance orthostat (EW). The 3 capstones collapsed into the chamber (C1-C3). The chamber probably had a more unusual entrance in the South consisting of two orthostats (EW and EW) set slightly inwards beside the orthostats W3 and E3. In contrast Werpeloh IV just 12m to the West is a classic passage grave.
