I have visited· I would like to visit

TheCaptain couldn't find on 13th Jul 2005 I had a quick look for this, now to be found somewhere in the outskirts and building land of Camors, but could see no signs or obvious place for it to be, so moved on.

Eleven metre long Allée Couverte to the south of Camors near the junction with the road to Coet er Ganguis.

It is supposedly all much still in place, but much ruined and overgrown.

Further information from Ogham
"It can be found at the junction of the Rue des Sabotiers and Rue de l Allee Couverte. The alley is dilapidated: its supports have fallen or leaning on the inside. This monument is still engaged in his cairn. And a cover slab is still in place. Two panels from the monument are certainly leaning against the bank: they may have been displaced during the construction of the intersection where the monument lies."

I would rate the site Condition 3, Ambience 3, Access 5.

The location of the site is 47 50.278N 002 59.811W taken with handheld GPS

It can be found at the junction of the Rue des Sabotiers and Rue de l Allee Couverte. The alley is dilapidated: its supports have fallen or leaning on the inside. This monument is still engaged in his cairn. And a cover slab is still in place. Two panels from the monument are certainly leaning against the bank: they may have been displaced during the construction of the intersection where the monument lies.
