TheCaptain couldn't find on 23rd Jun 2005 Three metre tall menhir, which was probably once part of the nearby alignment.

Visited April 2015. Location is accurate, leading to a small menhir on the edge of a farmers field by a private house. Access is easy, it being only a few metres into the field and grassed throughout. Last picture with my son gives the scale of the stone, which is around 3 metres or so. Condition 4, Ambience 3, Access 5, Accuracy 5
