In forest on E-facing slope, in headwaters of narrow valley of tributary of River Blackwater. Monument is very ruined due to forest planting. Remains of possible chamber (Wth c. 1m), aligned E-W, represented by three contiguous uprights (c. 0.45m-0.9m H) on N side and single upright (0.5m H) on S side. Further upright stone (0.4m H) stands 3.8m to W. Remains could well be last vestiges of megalithic tomb but insufficient survives to warrant acceptance.
