TheCaptain couldn't find on 24th May 2005 Supposedly another 500 metres along the path across the fields beside the railway can be found this nice little dolmen with a 3.5 by 1.5 metre chamber, within a round mound. But time was getting on, and there was no obvious way to get much further along into the fields without climbing fences and walls, and walking through cropped fields. This area was not proving very helpful for finding dolmens, so I decided to give up and move on.
A menhir existed in this place but it has been destroyed during the railway construction.
