Allée couverte de la Grée de Trévelot
Allée couverte de la Grée de Trévelot submitted by Ogham : The largest stone on the site visable at one end. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Passage Grave in Bretagne:Morbihan (56)

It is located on a hill above the Nantes - Brest canal in woods with access to the site via woodland paths but they are not signposted so you will find a handheld GPS a major aid to finding it. The actual site is very ruined and endangered, oriented north-northwest; with six supports on the east side and west side. There is a slab beside the access to the northwest. Between the supports you can see dry stone walling. A slab is present at the other end of the allée couverte, buried under earth and leaves. It may well be part of a side entrance. There is also a earth bank running circular around the allée couverte approximately 10m from the stones.
