It is a large pentagonal dolmen chamber covered by two capstones situated near the  SE edge of the Mausoleum only 4 m away from Sprockhoff 81 SE long side enclosure stones.   The chamber nowadays is heavily overgrown on all side except for the North.  An enormous tree is growing just beside it in the SE.
