Le Trou des Chouans
Le Trou des Chouans submitted by Ozzie : In the middle of the fairway on the golf course. Parking may be a problem. The site is overgrown and a tree had fallen over the western section (Vote or comment on this photo)
Remains of two dolmen a couloir in a cairn of 12m diameter.

Once it was a tumulus or cairn, nowadays a ruined and neglected monument. All the capstones have disappeared.
