There are two neolithic tombs at this site. The southern tomb is the more complete; it has a capstone some 4 by 3 m, supported by three stout upright stones at the south end and by a single more slender stone at the north. The northern tomb is considerably damaged with two remaining uprights at the north end. The capstone has fallen and is leaning against them. It is unclear whether these chambers, which are only a few metres apart, were part of the same structure or were independent. It may have been, that at one time, both chambers were buried under a single mound.

Today the monuments are well protected by the cattle
