Les Croûtes menhirs, Echauffour, Orne, N 48.7282, E 00.4174 by gps.
Visited Monday, 2nd May 2005. Access 4, Condition 3, Ambience 3.
A couple of kilometres south of the village of Echauffour, can be found a signpost pointing to menhirs along a small track to the east of the road. There is a place to park on this track near the main road, and after a couple of hundred metres walk down this track the two menhirs can be seen standing in a field. Both stones are about 3 metres tall, and are spaced about 30 metres apart from each other, on an alignment of 055° running down the hill (235° uphill). There is supposed to be a third stone in this alignment, and I think I saw it laying under deep undergrowth in the hedge at the top of the field, on about an equal spacing, although I could not be 100% sure.
Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
