Sited just 200m S of wedge tomb (TN039-017) in a prominent position on a hillock in upland pasture. The remains are scant perhaps because of deliberate disturbance that may account for a subcircular depression measuring some 7m x 6m and at least 0.3m deep on top of the hillock. At the northern edge of the depression there is a low orthostat aligned WNW-ESE. It is 1.45m long, 0.15m thick and slopes from 0.65m high at its more westerly end to 0.15m at the opposite end. Some 0.5m S of this there is a prostrate slab 1.6m in maximum dimension while 5-7m to the SW there are three irregularly spaced stones, possibly representing a kerb. The diminution in height of the orthostat from W to E would suggest it could be the surviving remnant of the gallery side or outer-wall of a wedge tomb.
