Crosh! Gosh! It's huge! Even in its crumbling state this is impressive. It's hard to imagine what the capstone must have been like, but judging by the rest of the stones it must have been enormous.
The initial impression, when approaching via the farmyard, is a little misleading, though. You see one of the massive portal stones and possibly the largest side stone there is on any portal tomb, but alas the other side is trashed. However, both portal stones are still present and correct.
The two 3m+ tall portal stones frame a deep set doorstone. This in no way small, but it is still dwarfed next to the rest of the structure. This is one that I really would like to have seen when intact.
