Situated in a valley 100m SE of the River Erne. The chamber, approximately 2m long, is incorporated in a stone fence. The entrance, at the E, consists of two portal-stones about 1.1m high at either side of a low stone, possibly a sill. The sides are of single slabs, the southern now pitched inwards. Both are about 1m high. There is no backstone visible. The roofstone is now broken in two parts, the larger of which covers the chamber. (de Valera and Ó Nualláin 1972, 130-1, No. 31)
