The massive sandstone capstone of a dolmen placed on the edge of the Lower Vaure Level Crossing Way and gradually being lifted by an oak tree. It measures approximately 90cm by 2m and nearly 1m thick.
It was dragged from its original location (N 45.13063° E 0.51359° buried in the field) about fifty years ago by the owner to clear the plantation. The tomb, filled in, would have had some artefacts. It was located on the edge of flat land facing south-west and overlooking the valley.
Table massive de dolmen en grès posée sur le bord du Chemin du Passage à Niveau de la Basse Vaure et soulevée progressivement par un chêne. Elle mesure environ 90cm sur 2m et près d'1m d'épaisseur.
A été tractée de son emplacement initial (N 45.13063° E 0.51359° enterré dans le champ) il y a une cinquantaine d'années par le propriétaire pour dégager la plantation. La tombe, rebouchée, lui aurait livré quelques artefacts. Elle était située en bord de replat de terrain orienté sud-ouest et surplombant la vallée de 3m.
