No place to pull over and go for a look. Old standing rocks as shown in the picture in the middle of a pasture.

Worth a look if you're in the area. There's a few other sights of interest locally. Including another dolmen and a stone circle. We took in a few of them one after the other. There's parking at this one which is handy.
