What is recorded here

In relatively level ground. This monument was identified in 2011 during groundworks prior to the establishment of a garden. The roofstone and a number of adjoining stones were dislodged and collapsed into an approximately circular chamber (dims. c. 2.2m ENE-WSW; c. 2m NNW-SSE; max. H c. 1.2m) constructed of roughly coursed drystone masonry. The wall is best preserved from SW-W. Immediately to the NNW is a very wide drystone wall composed of uncoursed rubble. Portion of this wall has recently collapsed into the chamber. The opening to a passage (H. c.1m; Wth. 0.8m) can be seen at the E side of the chamber. The chamber has been backfiled.
