TheCaptain couldn't find on 9th Jun 2005 Not far from Bergnon are two dolmens marked down a little lane. I walked down the lane but couldn’t really find anything, although I was assured by a passing chap on a bike, that it is possible to access both dolmens. But the barriers, crops and hedges here made it all too much effort for probably little gain, so I didn't try too hard. The first dolmen to be accessed is on the left side of the lane under a thick hedge across a field of barley, which I wasn't going to walk through, and there was no way around.
