The capstone was broken in several fragments of which a rather thick fragment remains well in sight on the tumulus.
The burial chamber is complete but a side has begun to collapse and it was necessary to fill the chamber with stones to avoid total collapse.
This megalith is hidden in a very thick green oak forest with thorny plants. It is difficult to find it and there is no road or path to reach it.
To look for it in bermuda shorts is not recommended for your legs!
