TheCaptain couldn't find on 10th Jul 2005 Despite being on the signposts of the megalithic walk, I could not find this 4 metre tall menhir and its fallen companions. The menhir is the only one now standing of a little alignment, the other stones small and fallen, but it is on private property which is probably why I missed it, despite a very long walk towards it from at least two directions.
Average ratings for this site from all visit loggers: Condition: 3.5 Ambience: 3
These stones are to be found in the forest to the east of Monteneuf.
