TheCaptain visited on 17th May 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 3 A kilometre or so down a rough track called Chasse de Pierre Brune from the D109 near Segonzac can be found the remains of this rectangular chambered dolmen. The chamber has dimensions of about 3 m by 2 m and made with well positioned stone blocks. There is a capstone which only covers the western end. It’s a pity about the chestnut trees growing in it.

I saw this in 2003 while cycling from RIberac. As I recall its in woods and a typical jumble of stones. Will search for photo.
