The Northern Ireland monuments record states that this tomb has gone. Well, it hasn't! There isn't much left of it, mind, but there's enough to match it with a 1940s description.
The dry-stone walls in this area are very well maintained, although some are suffering since the landowner died recently. In the corner of one field, next to a trackway, there is a raised triangular area that is oddly walled in. The inside of this is full of large boulders and at places around the edge large stones can be seen that are from the tomb's structure.
However, it is on the edge facing onto the track that the real proof of the tomb's presence can be seen. Here we have two large stones that mark either the entrance to the gallery or, more likely, the entrance to a subsidiary chamber. Behind these two stones several large slabs can be seen forming a chamber, which is full of large stones. It would be nice if this area was cleared out.
