Beware that the capstone overhangs the two side slabs quite considerably at the front. 

Having met up with a friend for a couple of days, I had been posing for a picture crouching in front of the dolmen. I stood up too rapidly afterwards, and whacked my head on the capstone, which knocked me to the floor.

I cannot remember whether the capstone gave a nice ringing tone like the Galitorte dolm

Apologies for the slightly blurred picture. I think that my friend who took this was concerned for my wellbeing. Or was it more likely she was laughing !
