In rough mountain pasture, on a terrace on the S-facing upper slopes of Knocknagorraveela. A waterlogged wedge-shaped chamber (L 4m; Wth 2.6m at the WSW end; Wth 1.6m at the ENE end) aligned WSW-ENE and largely enveloped in blanket bog. The tops of three sidestones are visible on the S side while those on the N side are covered with peat. An inclined slab exposed at the ENE may be a fallen out backstone. A small part of the roofstone is exposed WSW of the chamber and overlies the N of two transversely set jamb-like stones forming an entrance.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
