oldman visited on 14th Oct 2019 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 4 Access: 4 The ambiance of this small ancient site does not seem to be spoiled by the fact it is right by the side of the road. There are many stones here as well as the main three manhirs. Not easy for a wheelchair visit other than a drive by.
