    Thanks for this info, and indeed updating the lat and long to your position does in fact show something at the roadside which looks like it could be the dolmen on the Google maps aerial view.

    But I have to disagree with your statement of the roadside between Chignaroche and Pechadoire, as this is well to the northwest of the given position, and indeed within a separate community, Anzeme. Checking the position you give on geoportail, correctly identifies the Lieu-dit as Les Villettes, but it is about a kilometre north of St Fiel, along the road to Chignaroche.

      Greetings!

      Yep! Definitely between St Fiel and Chignaroche. I've edited the post. This would explain why I couldn't see it on geoprtail. I've uploaded a photo and other info which may or may not appear at some stage. I was shown this little dolmen a couple of years ago but couldn't remember which road it was on. It's further from Anzeme Plage than I thought.

      cheers
