Full Description
MY389: Chamber tomb. Valley floor. Possible rectangular chamber, 3.5 x 1.7m, has one 2m long side stone which appears to be in its original place, set on edge. There may be several other large stones still in place, but most of the other stonework looks displaced. Being so close to the village, it is almost against the north wall of the old schoolhouse enclosure, it will have suffered from much interference and stone robbing and in this respect it is surprising that it has survived at all.
