Nobody ever mentions that window, well they have now
That "window " is typical of many portal tombs some of which I have highlighted in the past

Come off it George, those are gaps above a stone not purposely cut windows like at Trethevy.

Haroldstown is no different from Trethevy there are plenty other stones with that same look , it is as likely to be choice from quarried stones rather than worked .
