thereddragon visited on 6th Apr 2014 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 4 Access: 5 Bit too boggy to jump into the field and get close ups. Should have worn my wellies!

TheCaptain visited on 29th Apr 2005 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 3 Access: 4 This menhir is about 2.5 to 3 metres in height and about 1.5 metres in width. It is found just a few yards away from the side of the road from Larchamp to Montflaux near a little pond beside a stream and is easy to see despite the very frisky bullocks in the adjacent field trying to get at me!
