TheCaptain visited on 21st Jul 2005 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 3 Access: 4 I spent quite some time looking for the second dolmen here, in all the hedges and adjacent fields nearby. But never just a few yards across the same field, where a large slab can be found ! Doh !

I knew of the remains of this second dolmen here, but not another three to be found. I was also clearly not "in the groove" for dolmen finding here, as this number 2 is only a few dozen metres away from number 1 in the same field, and 3 and 4 not much further away in the opposite field, their positions given away by the trees in the field!
