| This tomb stands on top of a small hill, on elevated arable land and is marked on the OS map and the Historic maps as 'Driud's Altar'. It is a circular mound 9m to 10m in diameter and 0.75m in maximum height. A kerb of small stones survive around almost all of the circumference but are some what concealed in the ground at the west. Two set stones, about 1m inside the kerb in the NE quadrant, indicate an inner kerb and there is a hollow measuring 3.50m in length and 2m in width at the centre of the mound where a slab 1.2m in length and 0.80m in width, lies elevated slightly above the ground which may be the roof of the tomb. |
