The three megaliths were found to have been previously disturbed. The cairn circles did not yield anything noteworthy but a few potsherds of Megalithic fabric [11.15.3]. The passage chamber though already ransacked did yield pottery of different types and iron objects. The pottery is of three fabrics: the Black-and-red Ware, bright burnished red ware and coarse red ware. The vase, basin, bowl, dish and lid are the main types in the Black-and-red Ware; and the vase with collared or externally beaded and truncated or out-curved having undercut rim, basin, hemispherical deep bowl, lid with flanged waist and dish-on-stand are represented in the red ware. The iron objects are fragments of saucers, straps, hooks, a curved blade (?) and a clip. Besides a thin copperplate with two notches on one side also was obtained.
