TheCaptain visited on 18th Jun 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 2 Access: 5 Not far off the main road through the village of Lescoff, just up Impasse du Menhir, can be found this poor menhir which is incorporated into the garden wall of the adjacent house. It's nearly 3 metres high and 2 metres wide, but it is seen to be splitting at its base.
