After finding a standing stone where the OS map said there should be a tomb I didn't expect to actually stumble across a tomb here. Luckily I had decided to head up the hill and try to look at the whole slope from above, which is how I saw this tomb hidden in some reeds.
A single roofstone covers a small flooded chamber constituting most of the remains. There are one or two orthostats in the boggy ground around the 'good' bit.
The views southwards are extensive. Below the stone circle complex would have been laid out on its little shelf. If it wasn't so boggy and soggy here this would be a spectacular place to lie around and enjoy the scenery.
