TheCaptain visited on 30th May 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 4 This dolmen can be easily found in a field beside the D24 road south of the village of Limogne-en-Quercy. Of typical size for round here, the chamber is 3.5 metres in length, and 1.5 metres wide, and is covered by a capstone which is larger in all dimensions. The northeast side has collapsed slightly, giving a good lean.
The dolmen is used for storing of some ancient farming equipment (ploughs and suchlike) which look to have been in there for many decades.

The chamber is about 3.5 metres long by 1.5 metres wide, with a capstone that more than covers it. The northeast side has partially collapsed, giving a good lean.
This dolmen is in a field just to the south of the village, and is used to store some pretty ancient farming equipment, which has probably been in there for many many decades.
