Standing Stone (Menhir) in Balearic Isles (Menorca / Minorca)

A standing stone described as being in the grounds of San Guillem, a farm at the end of Cami Son Guillermo (Son Guillem in the Menorquin language).

An interesting standing stone with some well-defined circular holes.

Access is probably only by permission of the landowner. If I can get more information, I will return here and add it.

This site has also 2 talaiots (rounded iron age towers) and other housing structures, so this should be considered as a settlement rather than a standing stone. Also, the actual location of the site is some 150 metres to the south.
