It is constructed from granite ashlar and slate. The tomb features an ashlar chest without a plinth and has a rendered top with a moulded edge. The north side includes an inset slate inscription plate, although the inscription is illegible. The south side is rebated for another slate inscription plate, which is currently missing.
