TheCaptain couldn't find on 4th Aug 2005 I could find nowhere to stop and look for this menhir, which is somewhere between the busy N.6 road and the river Yonne.

This menhir is somewhere between the busy N.6 road and the river Yonne, in amongst some reservoirs.

I could find nowhere to stop and have a proper look, although I thought I may have seen it as I drove past.
