johnstone visited on 23rd Jun 2004 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 4

karolus visited - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 4 Really cheerful little dolmen, with quite a number of cupmarks on the uprights. The sign nearby marks a panoramic view of sight lines to quite a number of other megalithic remains in the area. This one was one of the better preserved.
