The eastern part of the chamber is best preserved, with three supporting stones in situ , which are at a more or less obtuse angle to each other. A fourth stone can be a capstone remnant. A pushed-off or blown capstone lies on the north side of the chamber. Another bearing stone, almost covered with earth, can be seen southwest of the chamber.
