They are four in number, two being on each side, and having a space between them 5 feet in width, and about 10 feet in length; one is a limestone block, 6 feet wide, and 4 feet 6 inches high. At the eastern end of the central compartment two "aisles" open into it by means of rude doorways, or opes, composed of trilithons, each formed by two upright stones covered by a cap-stone, all being nearly of the same dimensions.

The two eastern "aisles" resemble the western in being divided nearly midway by two stones standing opposite to each other, and near the outer walls; it is quite possible that they also may have had cap-stones. A careful excavation of both the western and eastern "aisles" demonstrated the fact that they had been originally roofed with covering-slabs; indeed the remains, in a broken state, of such slabs was so obvious, as to attract the comments of one of the workmen. The stones used in the construction of the monument are of limestone, and "have been apparently obtained from the beds of rough, rubbly limestone, which crop out at the surface in the vicinity, unlike many other prehistoric structures which are often, in Ireland, formed of erratic blocks of a stone foreign to the neighbourhood.
