alchemille visited on 4th Apr 2014 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 3 Access: 4 Dolmen de Bouyé near Gramat is situated in a private property, pictures can only be taken from the road. It called my attention 4 stones in the garden just opposite the dolmen, as they were also in a private property and there was nobody round I could not find out whether they were prehistoric or just placed there for decoration.
TheCaptain visited on 24th May 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 3 To the southeast of Gramat, a few hundred metres along the GR.6 south from the hamlet of Bouyé can be seen the remains of this double dolmen and its little mound. Its just to the side of the track, opposite a home with a swimming pool being installed. I could not get into the field for a close look, and thick hedges and trees made making out what is there, and getting photographs difficult. I could however make out that there were some large slabs of stone at the eastern end of a long mound.
