oldman visited on 17th Sep 2019 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 4 Access: 4 There is a sign by the road informing you of the presence of this menhir but no indication as to where it is. The trackway to it really does not exist any more. So just park the car and delve into the wood by the stream and follow the path until the stone is found.

Drive about 1.5 kilometres on the D305 East of Meneac then a right turn at the cross roads. Access is gained via a vehicle track about 100 metres south of the cross roads then 200 metres East along the track beside the brook which will be on the right. The road is quite narrow and it may be better to leave the car at the cross roads for the short walk. The Menhir is at the Eastern end of a wood and is not visible from the road until well past it.
