Description The largely exposed, but well preserved extended dolmen viewed from the East. It is built of red granite erratics. As usual the flat sides are oriented towards chambers' inside.
The chamber is oriented NW-SE. Entrance in the SE. Original shape of the covering barrow unknown (round and long barrows are both frequent in this area).

Thank you.
@“Floodlights“: I do not use any heavy equipment like floodlights or similar. Only a LED-torch (with two AA batteries), a plastic battery torch (4 A batteries) and small flashlights. For this photo two small flashlights were used to slightly highlight our ancestors’ stunning architecture.
@“Guide“: Unfortunately I am dead certain my company has some severe objections against me guiding people to sites while they expect me to do what they pay me for. Sadly I am a wage slave. If some millionaire would like to support me I would greatly appreciate this ;)
@Loose Dolmen: This site is far from my home.
