The first of the four wedge tombs in this townland that we would see today. This one is the most unusual of them all, because it is actually in a dip cut into the bedrock. Directly in front of the tomb is an 40m x 40m expanse of exposed karst pavement, with many stones standing up in the grooves.
Just one wall-slab and part of the backstone stands now. Another slab lies to one side and is probably the remains of the other side. There are traces of the cairn outline, which was only a little larger than the tomb itself.
The remaining wall-slab is 3.5m long and 1.4m tall.
