Auto Translation: Triangular sandstone stone stuck on the edge of the Route de Bellevue and somewhat covered by earth brought on the embankment.
It is on the municipal boundary but not at a cadastral (?) angle.
It works perfectly as a menhir
Above ground on the wood side: 1m for 20cm thick. It has a cup on its back face.
Another massive block of the same sandstone is planted at the corner of the path leading to the Communal, without megalithic property.
Original French text: Pierre de grès de forme triangulaire fichée en bord de la Route de Bellevue et quelque peu recouverte par de la terre apportée sur le talus.
Elle est sur la limite communale mais pas à un angle cadastral.
Elle fonctionne parfaitement comme un menhir (bâillements assurés ! )
Hors du sol côté bois : 1m pour 20cm d'épaisseur. Elle présente une cupule sur sa face arrière.
Un autre bloc massif du m^me grès est planté à l'angle du chemin menant au Communal, sans propriété mégalithique.
