TheCaptain visited on 18th Jul 2005 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 4 Access: 3 This dolmen can be found about a kilometre walk along a farm track to the east of the Chantebrault dolmens, and then into a field by a wooded copse. It is fairly ruinous, just a large capstone balanced at a serious angle between the ground and one side support stone. It's about 4 metres square, and up to 2 metres from the ground. There are many more fallen stones here, but I cannot really make anything more out. The plough and crops come mighty close, and I suspect that they have wrecked much of what was here.
