TheCaptain couldn't find on 6th Aug 2005 Marked near to the menhir is a polissoir stone, in the woods down by the little river. I could find no obvious signpost or footpath towards where it is marked, and having now found out how difficult to find some of these polissoir stones are to find, I didnt spend any time looking.

Marked on my maps south of the Pierre Fitte menhir is a polissoir stone, in the woods down by the little river.
