TheCaptain visited on 3rd Aug 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 3 Just to the south of the D.17 between Meloisey and Pommard, near to the crossroads with the D.23, this dolmen is to be found within a field which when I visited was well fenced off with electric fencing and full of sheep, so I didn’t go in. The remains of a mound can be seen, with a capstone sitting on the top.

Just to the south of the D.17 between Meloisey and Pommard, near to the crossroads with the D.23, the remains of a mound can be seen, with a capstone sitting on the top.

Numerous human bones and many other objects were found here when it was excavated in 1866.

When I visited, the dolmen was to be found within a field which was well fenced off with electric fencing and full of sheep, so I didn’t go in.
