Situated on the SE-facing lower slopes of Knockree Hill, and incorporated into the townland and field boundary. The chamber (dims. 1.3m x 1.3m) faces uphill to the NW and consists of two tall portal stones, two sidestones and a broken doorstone which leans to the SE and rests on the backstone. The roofstone is displaced and rests against the N sidestone. A large block of stone lies between the portal-stones and may not be an original feature. Two low stones are set in front of the E portal-stone. (Powell 1941, 9-23; Price 1934, 36)
