Destroyed Standing Stone (Menhir) in Aquitaine:Dordogne (24)

L'étude du secteur Peyrefiche à proximité du château de Montfort nous a permis de trouver l'emplacement initial d'un menhir disparu. Il était planté en limite du lit majeur de le Dordogne, à 2m au dessus du niveau inondable qu'il avait en couverture visuelle mais aussi en commande du débouché d'un ruisseau et de son vallon venant du nord-ouest.

L'emplacement est dans l'angle de la propriété privée, sur le côté nord de la route de Montfort, caché par une haie.
