As I got to the track that leads down towards this tomb two tractors were driving up it towards me. So, I waited and hailed the driver of the first (the farmer) and asked about the tomb. He really didn't like the look of me or just plain thought I was mad for wanting to look at a pile of old stones ... I don't know which. Eventually, he gave me directions and permission to visit the tomb.
As you approach across the field you cannot see the tomb until the last minute, bacuase it sits in a little dip. It is also very ruined and so not very tall, which doesn't help. A few stones define a chamber and what may be a slipped roofstone lies to one side.
A curious monument. Not a lot to see, but what does remain is most odd.
