This stone was probably part of the burial chamber.


Across the R512 from the Grange Lios stone circle is this monument that I would classify as a wedge tomb.
It consists of two parallel rows of stones, the longer row being to the southwest and about 16 metres long, with a low and rounded stone at the southeast (140°) end. This stone has very nice and deep cavities on its surface.
At the feet of one of the stones in the longer row is a stone with an inscriptions which reads "SE remains vested in the state as a national". The words seem to make no sense to me, probably some words at the end are missing.
This monument is in a private land.
