TheCaptain visited on 18th Sep 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 4 Three hundred metres further down the road from the previous menhirs, and in the land to the north of the road, can be found the Coulet 2 menhir. Nearly 3 metres tall, it is a nice almond shaped stone, which has been mended from two parts cemented back together, and concreted into an upright position. A nice job has been done of this.
