TheCaptain saw from a distance 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. A bit further down the lane, a few stones which are probably remnants of the second dolmen could be seen on top of a little mound across a freshly ploughed field.
