TheCaptain visited on 14th May 2005 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 4 Access: 3 I am not quite sure what to make of this. It is either a fairly undisturbed dolmen still well contained within its mound or else it is a bit of a wreck ! The mound is about 8 metres by 4 metres and is found down a little track left at the edge of a field but there are no signposts. There is possibly a second mound close by.
Average ratings for this site from all visit loggers: Condition: 3 Ambience: 3.5 Access: 3.5
Probably an Allee Couverte judging from shape of largely buried and overgrown mound. Only 2 capstones and a few smaller blocks visible.
Address: Chemin Des Chevalais, 44250
