Visit Notes

Sunday, 3rd October 2004

The two stones found here would appear to be the remains of a large tomb, probably the largest in this complex. They look like two halves of a split boulder and are set with the flat faces towards one another. If these inner faces did form the sides of a tomb it would have been aligned to the northwest like the other two wedge tombs nearby.
