This dolmen compartment is not completely destroyed as alleged by some archaeologists. There are about six supports forming two chambers. The tables have disappeared. It is very difficult to access even in winter!
Compartmented dolmens are a type of monument only found in this coastal part of southwest Brittany, which have chambers with internal compartment slabs to break up the chamber into sections.
