I have visited· I would like to visit
TheCaptain couldn't find on 18th Sep 2005 Between 50 and 100 metres to the northeast of the Grand Dolmen du Ferrussac, is a fallen menhir more than 3 metres in length. However, this land is fenced off, and with some pretty mean looking horned cattle in there, so I wasn't going to look too hard.
