TheCaptain visited on 11th Jul 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 5 This menhir is to be found in a garden in the hamlet of the same name, a kilometre or so to the north of Tredion. The menhir is about 4 metres tall and nicely shaped, although it looks to have lost its top at some point, due to a lightning strike.
