(8) Wedge-tomb: The remains of this wedge-tomb are, for the most part, concealed by bog. The gallery, orientated WSW-ENE, is 1.2m wide at the W and some 4m in length. It is represented by 4 sidestones on the N and a single sidestone, pitched inwards, on the S. Two outer-wall stones are exposed to the N; a single stone to the SE may indicate the E end of the outer-walling. The edge of a roofstone, almost totally concealed, is visible at the NE end of the gallery. The tomb is situated within a network of old field fences, two of which run up to the site on the SW and SE. (Fig. 21)
