TheCaptain visited on 6th Aug 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 5 Take Rue du Menhir east from the village of Pers-en-Gâtinais, and just after the first road junction the road bears round to the right. The menhir is right beside the road, but almost lost in bushes and undergrowth. It's just over 2 metres tall, and is a lump of sarsen type stone.

It's just over 2 metres tall, and looks to be a lump of sarsen type stone.
