portal tomb of Duffcastle

Situated on the side of a ridge. This E-facing chamber is 2m long. The southern of two large stones at the entrance is a portal-stone, 1.8m high. The other, 1.4m high, appears to be a doorstone. The northern portal-stone is missing. Single stones form the sides of the chamber. The northern is 1m high and the southern, now collapsed inwards, was of like height. The backstone, 1.5m high, leans inwards. The front end of a great roofstone rests on the portal-stone but its opposite end has tilted into the chamber. Two stones at the inner end of the collapsed sidestone are of uncertain origin. (de Valera and Ó Nualláin 1972, 134, No. 36)
