Log Text: This site is local to me, I visited today and though the area is quite small the only indication of a site I could find was a small group of stones on a fairly straight line near a small natural pond. ( hence the name I assume)

Log Text: I visited today and was impressed with this singular menhir in a small field approximately 2km from the village of Bazouges.
It stands well over 5 meters in height and has various different lines and markings on its surface. I believe from local research that it was originally a polishing stone that was raised horizontally in the 1900s.
Even on a cold spring morning it is an imposing stone in a good setting.
Porz Guen Dolmens
Date Added: 7th Sep 2024
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: France (Bretagne:Morbihan (56))
Visited: Yes on 7th May 2024. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 3
Porz Guen dolmens submitted by thecaptain on 14th Jun 2006. Remains of two dolmens on the clifftop to the north of the Porz Guen beach on the Cote Sauvage of the Quiberon Peninsula.
The more inland is the most complete, with one capstone surviving on the entry couloir. The chamber would probably have been roofed with large corbelled capstones around it, many of which survive fallen neaby.

Log Text: Long walk along the coastal path until we reached the Dolmen high up overlooking the sea, lovely site but now roped off to the public so could only get to within 10mtrs of the site.

Log Text: I finally secured access to the site today, thanks to the local farmer. The site is in a remote area not signposted and full of young bullocks.
The stone itself is on a steep hillside and appears to have been broken many years ago and I suspect a large amount is still buried beneath the ground.
I have tried to gain access for a few years, not for the faint hearted.
