Visited: Would like to visit
Dolmen dit la Pierre-de-Verre submitted by theCaptain on 14th Aug 2012. What there is looks a bit like an allée couverte 6 metres long by 2 metres wide, but probably was an Angevine dolmen.
It has been altered about with quite a bit, including being dug into on the west side to be made into a goat house.
