It is now within a large abandoned quarry and no archaeological feature is visible. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revised upload : 14 October 2019
A Neolithic passage tomb; likely dates to the Early to Middle Bronze Age. Its significance lies in its early cartographic representation and potential as a rare surviving prehistoric monument in a heavily altered landscape.
