TheCaptain visited on 9th Jun 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 3 This dolmen is signposted from the main road, but when you get there down the farm track, its fenced off in a field with no access signs, but you get a good view across the field. It’s a simple dolmen with a capstone which looks to be precariously balanced on just two supports, although a view from further down the lane confirms there to be a third support stone.
