Context:
Found in an inhumation burial in a mound around 1880. The stone cist was 2.2 m and drywalled, the sides were flat stones while the ends consisted of slabs. The bottom was covered with sand. The remains of a skeleton were found; the bones were almost dissolved but the teeth were well preserved. The tutulus was found near the northern end of the chamber. Pieces of bone and charcoal were found around stones in the mound. Later, when the chamber was demolished, B03874/a-c: tutulus, slate disc and flint point, were found.
