Map Reference: G097381 (1097, 3381)



Ballyglass is a large centre-court tomb with two two-chambered galleries leading from an elliptical court. The court is about 6m wide and 10m long and has a well-defined entrance at the northeast which is lined with massive boulders.



A lintel and several corbels survive in position and two large capstones, one from each gallery, lie just within the court. The total length of the tomb is about 23m.
