Cazarils tombe ovale 2 submitted by TheCaptain on 4th Nov 2007. Cazarils tombe ovale 2 is much bigger than the first, but does not have the wonderful carved headstone.
It's cairn of stones is much bigger also, but unfortunately was getting very overgrown with bushes, making photos of the whole thing very difficult.
