A superb partly reconstructed court tomb E of Malin More on the minor road.
Its total length is 40m including an oval court 14m long. The entrance to the court is in the E and on either side of the entrance are two chambers built into the cairn each of which has a decorated orthostat.
At the W end of the court are two parallel galleries.

Situated close to its much better known portal namesake, the best surviving part of the court tomb is the 6m long gallery running W from two entrance jambs to a backstone - all 1.8m high. The side stones are lower.
Two lintels survive - one, slightly displaced, across the gallery and the other fallen and lying in front of the entrance jambs.
Two stones from the NE arm of the court adjoin the N entrance jamb.
