This Neolithic burial chamber stands in splendid isolation overlooking the bay. The capstone is supported on three of the seven upright stones, and the whole structure was once covered by a mound of earth or stones. Earlier this century stones were used to block the holes in the sides of this tomb and it was used as a sheep-shelter.
