Allée couverte de Corn-er-Houët
Allée couverte de Corn-er-Houët submitted by Ogham : Site in Bretagne:Côtes-D'Armor (22) France The side entrance, which is small and would just fit a teenager. (Vote or comment on this photo)
The passage is 3metres long with 21 orthostats, which have been displaced. This is the best of the preserved tombs with a side entry in Brittany, so it is claimed. This site seems derivative of covered walkways in the Neolithic-3rd millennium BC. A beautiful rock carving is visible on one of the stones.
