TheCaptain visited on 21st May 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 4 500 metres to the west of the Le Blanc allée couverte in a field just beside the road to Naussannes this dolmen has become covered in brambles and bushes. It is still 2 metres high the large capstone resting on at least three big support stones of which at least one has collapsed.
This one is guarded by a tricky barbed wire gate which caught my shirt on the way in and on the way out I tripped on it and it ripped my trousers and leg to shreds. Its obviously one of those days.

For my visit in 2005, this one was guarded by a tricky barbed wire gate which caught my shirt on the way in; and on the way out I tripped on it and it ripped my trousers and leg to shreds. It was obviously one of those days.
