alchemille visited on 8th May 2014 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 5 The pierres plates (because there are two) are found in the town centre, on both sides of the road near the fountain leading to the church. Precisely in the route from Mauriac to Montclard.
"La pierre plate" consists then in a cap stone 2m by 0.90. On the other side of the road we find a small cap stone of bearly 1m long by 0.60 but this small one is broken and has been repared by a blacksmith.
