Menhir dit la Grande Borne (Chanceaux-près-Loches) submitted by lafemmedepierre : Site in Centre:Indre-et-Loire (37) France Près de la lisière du bois des Chamoisins. D'après son propriétaire, ancien maire de Chanceaux, cette pierre ne serait pas anthropique mais serait une création de la nature. Les fouilles ont révélé qu'elle n'est pas séparée de la roche mais en est une sorte d'excroissance. Elle a longtemps servi de borne de limite. Photo prise le 11 06 2019.
