| Ballyvoy - Passage Tomb |
This is a fairly ruinous site. Only orthostats from the gallery remain - the court having gone. The gallery is aligned northeast-southwest with the entrance probably at the southwest end. To the northeast of the monument a rocky outcrop rises up. On the top of this there are the remains of a passage tomb.
The gallery is roughly 8m long and 1.5m wide. The tallest orthostat is 1m tall. The whole monument is built on a fairly severe slope making its profile very odd to look at. The rocky ridge that rises up behind the tomb adds to the off effect.
