Log Text: Any suggestions / thoughts on the track / path seen here leading south from the sharp turning in the farm road a very short distance south of the circle: http://goo.gl/maps/HKskO ? I didn't notice the track on my visit, but wonder now if it is the original approach route to the circle, rather than a modern but (almost) disused farmer's horse / quad bike route.

Log Text: Only about 300-400m long, but about 600-900mm high in places. Parts appear to be totally built of soil, but in other rounded boulders are clearly visible. Clearly marked on 1:50000 OS map. Though much lower, it is reminiscent of the better parts of Offa's Dyke.

Belinac Menhir
Date Added: 26th Apr 2015
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: France (Midi:Lot (46))
Visited: Yes on 26th Apr 2015. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 3 Access 5
Belinac Menhir submitted by MichelDRN on 20th Oct 2005. I suggest to rename Livernon Menhir as Belinac Menhir, its local name.
From Livernon (Lot, 46), heading SE towards the road joining Cahors and Figeac towns, a sign indicates Belinac Menhir on the right side. 600 meters and this outstanding monolith appears.
It is 3.50 meters high, 0.40 m wide, and large from 1.50m (base), to 1.90 m (middle) and 1.00m (top).

Druids Temple (Cumbria) submitted by Alphasmam on 17th May 2014. Yet another view of Birkrigg Stone Circle showing its double rings of limestone.
