A sketch dated 1936 shows 22 remaining kerbstones. The bush on this barrow is like a wall, you cannot find any of them. But there is a little path to slip through, and there are the two shifted capstones of the western chamber. Again, one more of the typical Extended Dolmens of this area. In the ground some stones are visible, most likely the tips of the orthostats. The remains of the eastern chamber might be in those bushes. |
