Brocuéjouls, Millau, Aveyron, Midi-Pyrénées
A very remarkable building: the extended capstone is used as a roof for the extra room by constructing a wall of dry stones at the left side.
The tumulus is destroyed, but the dolmen, transformed into a sheepfold, is very well preserved. The table measures 430x400x60 cm, the pillars: right 330x35x160 cm, and left 207x35x160 cm. Room width 135 cm.
