The landscape here is characterised by wet, marshy terrain with rocky outcrops scattered throughout, whilst higher ground rises to both the east and west. On clear days, you can spot Lough Foyle at Quigley’s Point roughly 5 kilometres to the southeast.

The tomb itself is a partially roofed gallery stretching about 6 metres in length, oriented southwest to northeast and somewhat embedded in the surrounding bog. The structure displays the classic wedge tomb design, narrowing from 1.75 metres wide at its western end to just 0.5 metres at the eastern end, where the back is either missing or concealed beneath the peat. The tallest sidestones at the west rise 0.9 metres above those at the eastern end, creating the characteristic wedge profile. Two overlapping roofstones still cover the middle section of the gallery, allowing narrow access through the northeastern end to explore about two thirds of the interior, though the western end has lost its roof and is blocked by collapsed stonework.

The monument sits within an oval, heather covered stony mound measuring 10.7 metres long and 8 metres wide at its broadest point near the western end. The construction shows considerable complexity, with evidence of at least three lines of walling beyond each side of the gallery, suggesting multiple phases of building or an elaborate architectural design. Various orthostats and smaller stones form the gallery walls; seven on the north side and eight on the south, with some stones positioned to create what may have been a portico area approximately 1.7 metres long at the entrance. A leaning facade stone at the southwest corner and another at the northwest, along with traces of outer walling on both sides, hint at the monument’s original grandeur, though time and the encroaching bog have obscured many details of this ancient structure.
