Recorded monuments

• CV016-043 Megalithic tomb - court tomb
  Description

  This monument, a dual court tomb, sited on a low, rocky ridge, is almost completely overgrown. The two galleries, both 9.5m long, are each preceded by the remains of a court and stand at the NW and SE ends of a cairn 37m long, 17m wide and 2.5m high. The opposed ends of the galleries are 2m apart. The court at the NW is semicircular in outline but only three orthostats remain of the SE court. Both galleries are divided by jambs into three chambers. A lintel rests on the entrance jambs of the SE gallery and on the inner pair of segmenting jambs of the NW gallery.
