Inside little wood, remains of a Dolmen located 3,4 Kms East of St André des Eaux, close to Briere marsh.

About 15 blocks lie in a 10m space, aligned South-North. Only one support stone remains standing.

The endstone on the North side is alongside, it may be the headstone. The last stone on the South is a white quartz block.
