'Visited' Saturday 3 October 2009
We had planned to see these stones as they are so close to Castel Rufel and next to the road. (See also Trimen.)

In the end, the weather was poor & we had a fairly long journey ahead, so as they don't look that spectacular in the photos we'd seen, we didn't try very hard. We thought we saw one of them as we drove past, but I'm not sure.

In 'Guide to the Menhirs and other Megaliths of Central Brittany' (Mezert Books) Samuel Lewis says:

"The stones are not hard to find as they actually stretch across the road, two on one side and one on the other. Close by, and also beside the road, is another menhir of the same height."

I think it was this 'extra' stone we saw.
