TheCaptain visited on 25th Jun 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 2 Access: 5 This pleasant menhir is about 4 metres tall, and trapped in a garden about 250 metres north of the church along Rue de Menhir in the village of Penvénan. It is however only a few metres from the road, and easily visible from it.
