The earth-house is located in the yard of a working farm signposted from the main road. Park by the sign in the driveway to the farm and walk the last 120 metres to the site turning right just past the farm house to see the iron fence around the site. There is a good site sign there. In September 2010 the gate was easily opened and the earth house entered via a trap door and ladder. A few new stones towards the top of the site are painted grey to distinguish them from the original stonework. Take a torch with you. The site was discovered in 1926 when a farm vehicle fell through part of the roof and has been excavated and made accessible to the public via a roof trap door and ladder. Original access was via a 3.5 metre passage with a short drop into the chamber which had a corbelled roof and four supporting stone pillars now strapped to strengthen them. There are five alcoves in the chamber. When excavated there were the disarticulated bones of six adults and twelve children in the chamber, so the site had been used as both a dwelling and later as a delayed burial site. September 2010.
