TheCaptain saw from a distance on 16th Jul 2005 High up on a cliff edge (because of a quarry) this dolmen can just about be seen through the trees from the roadside next to the cemetary. However, its on private land, and a proper viewing is not possible. It looks like a pretty big dolmen despite its name, and perhaps a more typical Angevine dolmen. It looks to be in fairly good condition.

This looks like a pretty big dolmen despite its name (I guess its just relative!), and perhaps a more typical Angevine dolmen. It looks to be in fairly good condition.

The dolmen is high up on a cliff edge (because of a quarry) and can just about be seen through the trees from the roadside next to the cemetary. However, it seems to be on private land, and a proper viewing was not possible for me.
