I'd liked to tell you that this dolmen called Le Courtil des Fées seems to be the same that his neighbour called Allée Couverte de Beaumont or Allée Couverte du Château de Beaumont. It is presented so on several sites, such as wikipédia, T4T35, Mégalithes Bretons... As the two that you present cmaim to stand 80 metres one from another, I'd rather think it's indeed the same one : What do you think ?

    Thank you for your comment. Looking at the ign map (link on geoportail IGN link) shows there to be two allée couverte here.

    It is difficult for me to know, as I have never been here.
