Two menhirs in a field, standing at 60 metres distance of each other. The first one, close to the D111, is trapezium shaped with a height of 5.50 metres; the second one, standing more to the east, is 4 metres high and almond shaped. The little round marker in that stone at the lower end is placed by the General Levelling of France IGN69.
