Description The remaining capstone rests on 3 uprights (2 of the SW-Side, 1 of the NE-Side). There also are a lot of overthrown and partly overgrown stones all over the mound. Some of them look like (parts of) capstones, some may have been uprights. One stone is probably a passage-upright and still in situ. Around 4m east of the preserved bay the tops of 2 stones are visible. Possibly these are chamber uprights still in situ.

According to the size of the mound and the total number of remaining stones, the chamber's original size may have been something between 7 and 10m.
