TheCaptain visited on 14th May 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 5 While at Dissignac there was a map showing a cycle ride which passed a cromlech a couple of kilometres to the south along Route du Cromlech so I went to have a look. Its easily found just north of the road junction and in a little piece of land between houses with its own signpost outside. It’s a little circle of stones about 5 metres in diameter and I suspect it’s the remains of a burial chamber indeed there seems to be an inner bit still with a capstone.
Average ratings for this site from all visit loggers: Condition: 2.5 Ambience: 3.5 Access: 4.5
Marked as Cromlech on town signs, but clearly a very broken Allee Couverte. One capstone still perching on a smaller block, but other remaining portions of uprights forming vague circle. On small hill above street in front of houses.
Address: Route de Cromlech, 44380
