As you walk around the top of the ridge from tomb 52 towards tomb 51 (Listoghil - the central cairn) look down and you will see two monuments, 48 & 49. This one is like 55, a low boulder burial type structure, but it may well have been a totally trashed dolmen type.
The capstone lies on nothing more than a pile of stones, but it is beautifully shaped. It is an odd wedge shape with several deep cups in its upper surface. Then underside is very flat.
