What is recorded here

In an area of level pastureland and outcropping rock. The tomb consists of a chamber (L 2m; Wth 1.4m), aligned NE-SW, formed of two sidestones which decrease in height from W to E. The interior of the chamber is filled with field stones which extend some 3m beyond it to the E and W. The remains are probably those of a wedge-tomb.
