"This monument was built in the construction of a building now in ruins. Carriers and a fragment of the roof slab is still in place."
These remains are not a dolmen but a ruined medieval house, rectangular shaped with walls of about 1 m thick. Stones may be originated from a dolmen nearby, especially the lintel above the entry looks megalithic.
