From LaDragonne. "En fait, les photos ne montrent que la première partie du monument et la première dalle de couverture. La chambre mesure 4m80 de l'entrée jusqu'au socle enfoui de la dalle de chevet, volontairement brisée. Le couloir est étroit (60 à 80cm)
Les constructeurs se sont servi des bandes de calcaire affleurant pour servir d'orthostate gauche. Les autres parties sont d'un calcaire plus jaune, amené sur place.
D'autres énormes pierres calcaires ont été amenées à 50m, en extrémité du promontoire sur lequel se trouve le dolmen".
