Thursday, 1st January 2004

This is a very ruined tomb. A few orthostats poke out of the top of a low, round mound and just about define the gallery.

The one redeeming feature of this site is its amazing positioning. To the west, towards the coast, hills rise up and obsucre the view, apart from a small gap which allows you to see the sea.
