Situated on gentle N-facing slope 1km N of inner reaches Tragumna Bay. Single orthostat (H 1.2m), stands at W end of N side ruined chamber, aligned E-W; collapsed c. 1980 when number of boulders dumped at E end. Roof-stone fell between single S sidestone, which collapsed outwards, and second N sidestone, pushing its E end out to NE. Earth and stone at W end of chamber may be field clearance. Cannot be classified with certainty; interpretation as wedge-tomb would not be inconsistent with present evidence. (Roberts 1988, Ch. 2, no. 38 "Drishanemore")
