There were 9 dolmen in the area North of Valverde del Camino (North of Huelva) but there was more megalithic structures to be seen along the N-435 but I didn't have much time. I saw 4 of the dolmen at El Pozuelo, some of them looked like dolmen on top of mounds and were made from quite a few rocks.

There were also flint like stones jutting out of the side of the mounds, almost defining the perimeter.

A fascinating site and worth exploring further.
