Close to the edge of a limestone terrace above the sea on W side of Inis Meáin. The monument is very ruined. The gallery (L c. 3m), aligned E-W, is represented by one N sidestone, now markedly pitched to S, and two S sidestones, lying flat beneath a large displaced roofstone. A number of displaced slabs cover W end of the gallery. Some slight traces of a cairn are apparent around the tomb which seems to have been built on bare rock. (Robinson 1980)
