Now, we really could not work these stones out. As you approach you can see two huge stone fairly close together and a smaller one some distance away and you assume it's a stone row. When you reach them you can see that the two large stones are not aligned in the same direction, nor do they suggest the entrance to a tomb.

The two taller stones are very well matched each standing 1.8m tall and 1.5m apart. The smaller stone is just 80cm high and is at a distance of 5m away from the two others.
