On S-facing slope of a low hill in gently rolling pasture. It comprises a gallery (L c. 2.2m, Wth 1.75m), aligned E-W, represented by two stones on N side, one on S and a tall backstone (H 1.8m) at W. There is an upright stone at E which appears to have been displaced from the tomb. A large displaced stone protrudes from the field stones which fill the chamber. The remains are incorporated into a field wall beside an outhouse. A court tomb (GA055-034----) stands c. 130m to SE. (Aldridge 1965, 15)
