This granite menhir can be found just to the west of the road around the east side of Beaufort lake, a bit to the north of the Abbey.

It's in a field of wheat, but can be easily seen. I estimate it to be at least 4 metres tall.

It was recorded that another similar but fallen menhir existed here about 100m from the Pierre du Domaine until it was destroyed in about 1880.
