Catrinm visited on 6th Sep 2022 - their rating: Amb: 3 Access: 4 Worth a visit - it was raining so even better. Some fab reconstructions of carved passage stones of dolmens in area which made it easier to know what to look for.

TheCaptain visited on 14th Jun 2005 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 4 Access: 5 There is lots of stuff in here, found at various places in the locality. Some good explanations of the various types of dolmen and tumulus to be found, and some lovely replicas of many of the engraved stones to be found. Seems like I have seen most of these now.
