oldman visited on 7th Apr 2019 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 3 This is our second visit to this site. Earlier in the year this time and much less undergrowth so we were able to see a second Menir in the wood and some other large stones which perhaps are the site of a burial.
oldman visited on 1st Sep 2018 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 5 Access: 3 It is right on the edge of a small wood surrounded by vines. You either have to approach through a vineyard from the North of the stone or along tracks from the South between vineyards. It is not a very big stone but it is covered on the wood side with sets of parallel lines. Rock Art?

A nice article from 1935 can be found in Persée, which mentions other smaller stones which may once have formed an alignment.
