rrmoser visited on 16th Jun 2018 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 5 Access: 5 Usually these fusion sites do not work for but this one was an exception. The location majesty of the Dolmen and the church in ruins synergies well as a site. Perhaps the presence of teh church wall which substitutes for the berm of the original mound helps the ambiance of the site.
