Burial Chamber (Dolmen) in Normandie:Calvados (14)
This imposing stone was reported in 1939
This is a huge block of shale with an oblate ellipsoid shape. It measures nearly 5 metres long, 3 m wide and 1.50 m thick. Its weight is estimated at 15 tons. It is based on its large face on the bank left edge of a creek. It seems that the rock had rolled down the slope. Could this be the cap stone of a dolmen?
