Cremated remains were located in the Western part of the chamber. They were found together with several stone tools (axes, daggers) that consist of different stone types (flint, gneiss, diorite, slate).
Today, the chamber can be visited via the artificial entrance that was constructed with fieldstones during the excavation in 1899. The chamber is lit via a skylight that was also constructed for the excavation.
