This is a beautiful example of a Burren wedge tomb - long, low, elegently shaped, beautifully proportioned ... simply very attractive. The roof is a massive, 4m long, 1.3m wide almost wafer thin slab. The one remaining side wall is a single slab, rising from 80cm to around 1.2m, the southern wall slab is sadly missing, but both end slabs are in place.
For asthetic values this is a great tomb, its main detraction being the proximity of the field walls.
