Occupying a roadside spot this portal tomb is very nice, sweet even. It is a very delicate structure, which looks like one good gust of wind would make it come crashing down.
The chamber is open to the sky but one capstone remains (I presume that this tomb probably had two overlapping capstones like Haroldstown, County Carlow) propped up precariously on the spindly portal stones and part of the chamber.
The entrance is about 1.2m tall and the whole structure reaches around 2.1m high. It is 3m long and no cairn survives.
