TheCaptain visited on 9th Jun 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 5 This is a nice site, up on top of a mound surrounded by forest, although it was difficult to make out what exactly remains here. It seems to be a T shaped arrangement, perhaps an east west oriented chamber with an additional northern part ? I must try to look it up somewhere. Basically, what remains are lots of stones on top of a big mound, with one or two capstones still in place.

5km To the west of the road between Guerande to La Roche-Bernard in Brittany, near Asserac. This Dolmen is little more than an origami now, but once stood upright and had a tumulus. There is still a good atmosphere on this out of the way site. D2, 44410 Herbignac, D44, Bretagne, France Phone: 02 40 70 70 21
Opening Hours: 10:00-12:30 and 14:00-18:30 1July to 31 August
