Notes:

This appears to be an engraving of a dolmen called Lanyon Quoit in Cornwall.

The monument was actually destroyed in 1815 by a storm, and was rebuilt incorrectly. This engraving is of the original monument, since it predates 1815.

Cornwall Guide has a photograph.

Megalithia has a useful map.
