Wedge Tomb in Co. Monaghan

This wedge tomb has a gallery about 4.5m long and 2m wide. It is aligned approximately NE-SW and is flanked on either side by outer walling which extends a short distance beyond the SW end. There is a marked decrease in height of the orthostats from south west to north east. A roof lintel lies to the south east of the gallery.
