Seen from the southwest.


This passage tombs stands just beyond the top of a low hill inside the complex.
It's a ring of scattered stones that would make the kerb of the monument, with an upright stone in the centre. This should be the capstone. It fell downwards and remained almost vertical.
The circle has a diameter of about 9 metres, and its main axis seems aligned with the top of the Knocknarea.
