Description
This wonderful holed stone is today found nicely presented just outside the little church of the village of Aizier, right on the banks of the River Seine. The stone is the portholed entry stone from a now destroyed allée couverte, destroyed during the making of a road.

The stone is about 1.7 metres tall and wide, thickness 22 cm, but the important dimension is that of the circular hole, which is diameter 47 cm, and yes, I did manage to crawl through it!
