The low mound with the only surviving kerb stone, seen from the northeast.


Passage Tomb G is a mound with a hollow in the centre and some stones of the cairn poking out the ground. I saw only one standing stone to the north of the mound that might have been part of the kerb. There is no visible gallery, though a ditch in the cairn might suggest that it is aligned to the east-northeast (80°).
The mound has a diameter of 19 metres.
