TheCaptain visited on 9th Aug 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 3 Just outside the Hauts-de-Bretagne dolmen, at the northwest side, can be found a polissoir stone, with one groove, 5 basins and a flat area for polishing work. These are on a slab about one metre square. I do not know whether this slab was once part of the blown up dolmen or not.
