**Il-Gebla ta' Sasuna** submitted by enkidu41 : The remains of this dolmen consist of a huge partially collapsed capstone measuring 13' across supported only on one end. (Vote or comment on this photo)

Burial Chamber (Dolmen) in Gozo. The remains of this dolmen consist of a huge partially collapsed capstone of coralline limestone measuring about 13' across, supported only on one end.

The monument is in a garden and is visible through a locked iron gate - or, for the more intrepid, over a 10' wall with the assistance of strategically placed bench seats against the wall in the street alongside!
