On the summit at 113m OD is an oval mound, some 14m across and 1.3m high, with six slabs so arranged as to indicate a stalled chamber aligned N-S. Its appearance is unchanged since it was planned by RCAHMS in 1935. To the S, at a distance of some 25m centre-to-centre although with only some 15m separating the peripheries, is a smaller mound not exceeding 0.2m high and about 8m in diameter. Two slabs lie on its NE perimeter; it probably represents a separate burial-mound.
RCAHMS 1983, visited June 1981.
