"Ce petit alignement ? est douteux. Il y a la forme d'un Y.
Ce qui est frappant c'est que ces pierres sont alignées ! Vestige de menhirs ou alors affleurement naturel ? M. Charles Lesteven y voyait un alignement de menhirs. Cet alignement est situé non loin des murets en pierre sèche qui bordent le flanc ouest du cap de la Chèvre"

"This small alignment? is doubtful. There is the shape of an Y.
What is striking is that these stones are aligned! Vestige of menhirs or natural outcrop then? Charles Lesteven saw an alignment of menhirs. This alignment is located near the dry stone walls that line the western side of the cap de la Chèvre"
