TheCaptain couldn't find on 4th Jun 2005 These two dolmens are within the confines of an airfield, which has a big military base on the northern side of the runway, and a little flying club at the south. I could not get to very near to where the dolmens are marked on my map, so didn’t try very hard to get close enough for a photo.
The dolmens have been positioned within the landscaped grounds of the high security base, and cannot be visited without special permission, hence the 1 for access.
