Looking at the tomb from the north-northeast.


Cloghmore court tomb is tucked away under a line of trees.
Despite being in poor conditions and many stones are missing, it still retains a wonderful aspect.
The court is the more intact portion of this tomb. The court is 2.50 metres long and 4 metres wide. Nearly nothing remains of the gallery apart from a low and wide stone that could have been a septal slab or the backstone of the gallery. What remains of the gallery is 3.10 metres long and about 1 metre wide.
The court looks to the east (90°).

A boundary of net and barbed wire separates the court tomb from a standing stone and other stones lying on the ground.
