TheCaptain visited on 13th May 2005 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 4 Access: 4 A fine lateral entry allée couverte at the top of a hill just to the northwest of the Saint Just megaliths and signposted from there. The main chamber is about 13 metres long 1.2 m wide and oriented 102°. The entrance is on the south side with a couple of laterally set portal stones near the east end. There are 8 capstones in place and all the stones get larger to the west end. The stones are made from the strange lumpy local Schist.
