TheCaptain visited on 16th Jan 2012 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 3 Access: 5 Remains of a little dolmen now outside the gates to the Banque de France’ Giversac Enterprise Centre and it shelters a couple of floodlights. The capstone is about 2.5 by 2 metres broken at one end and it sits on a few various support stones. I suspect it’s been jumbled about a bit.
Finding this involved some extremely steep and narrow lanes up the vertiginous sides of the Dordogne river from Vitrac and getting away again after was just as bad as the roads through Domme are banned to campervans due to the small narrow cliff face hanging roads so although you can park next to the dolmen an access rating of 5 is perhaps a bit high ! There are no signs.
