TheCaptain saw from a distance on 25th Sep 2005 I could find nowhere to park my campervan around here, so ended up turning round and going back, which was easier said than done! However, the menhir standing up on the top of its little hillock can be seen for miles around, and looks to be about 2.5 metres tall.
