Just beyond the remains of the passage tomb, in the second field from the road and visible from the gate is this curious portal tomb.
It is very obviously a portal from the size of the capstone (which has a wonderful shape) but as for the other stones it is very difficult to discern their original role in the structure.
One portal stone seems to be present, but recumbent and the wall slabs are fairly mixed up.The chamber would have been maybe 2m x 1.5m with the 3.5m long capstone resting on top.
