Martin_L visited on 1st Jun 2022 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 4 Tre ortostater og en dekkstein er til stede. Sikkert må i det minste en form for passasje ha blitt borte. Ensemblet er veldig imponerende. Rår høyt i et felt. Three orthostats and one capstone are present. For sure at least some sort of passage must have gone missing. The ensemble is very impressive. Towering high in a field. As of summer 2022 the farmer kindly left an access path.

Autun visited on 16th Sep 2021 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 4 I was lucky at the time of visit. The field had been cleared of crops, and the fine dolmen was clearly visible. From the grass, it seems that currently a way is kept crop free to visit the dolmen, even during the growing period. An impressive site.

TheCaptain visited on 20th Jun 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 2 Pleasant enough little dolmen sitting in a field of crops about 200 metres from the road, but with a signpost. The capstone is sitting on three support stones, but I couldn’t get close enough to note any details.
