Park carefully in one of the gated turnouts. Bring a jacket regardless of the weather to protect your ingress. Climb the fence into the pasture. Walk around the peculiar rocky outcropping. The stone is surrounded by thorny ulex/gorse bushes; climb up on the side nearest the road. It's pretty easy. User your jacket to protect your belly from the ulex thorns. Make an oath at the stone and be bound by the universe... Also, beautiful views! The turbine is cool to see...

Very atmospheric, great views, surrounded by whins, but there is a steep path up to the megalith. There may be cattle in the field. Access not for the those with limited mobility. Field Gate locked.

Very interesting monument. You need to take care climbing over the fence and the rocks to access it....particularly in cycling shoes!👍

Such lovely history. But not accessable to all as you need to climb some rocks to gain access on top
