TheCaptain visited on 13th Jun 2005 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 3 Access: 3 There's a big mound here on top of a hillock, to the east of the Kerluir menhir, but its all covered with gorse and blackthorn. However, there is a way through, and somewhere in the middle can be found this tiny little dolmen, which consists of a capstone sitting on two sidestones, with a few other stones in the vicinity. It wouldn't surprise me if this wasn't just a set of stones from an entry corridor, and that there is, or was, something much bigger lurking in the thick undergrowth !
