It was quite a diversion to visit this tomb and I was very apprehensive about doing so. Luckily it proved to be very worthwhile.
Only the chamber remains made up of 20+ orthostats that average 1.8m in height. The length of the chamber plus extended passage is approximately 8m.
It lies just 15m into the field like the huge skeleton of a megalithic beached whale. Beautiful.

From Shercock take the R162 north and then the R181 north. Turn right at the first turning and proceed for about 1km. This splendid tomb is in a field to the right.
