• SL041-034001 Megalithic tomb - unclassified
  Description

  In gently sloping rocky pasture. A ruined gallery (L 4.5m; Wth 2.2m) is aligned NE-SW. A prostrate stone at the NE end is a fallen backstone (Wood-Martin 1883-4, 448-9, no. 2; 1888, 169, no. 2). Three orthostats are in place at the more northerly side. Two are alongside to the W and are separated by a gap 1.3m wide from the third which adjoins the prostrate backstone. One orthostat is in place at the NE end of the other side of the gallery. Alongside to the W there is another orthostat that has fallen outwards and is now almost prostrate. The outer end of the last supports a stone, possibly a displaced orthostat (ibid.). A natural oval hillock (SL041-034002-) at the edge of the field c. 100m to SE is possibly what Wood-Martin (1883-4, 449) referred to as a 'sepulchral mound on the summit of a slight rise almost obliterated by tillage'.
