A Menhir at Grid: UTM 677469 also known as the Ivy Stone, which is 3.5m of diorite, set 1m into the ground and packed in with smaller stones, sometimes known as Trig stones.

Unfortunately a farmer caused some damage with a sledgehammer in 1982 and although the outline is now altered it remains an impressive Menhir. It is also worth pointing out that before houses were buil...

La Hutte aux Gabelous, Saint Mars-sur-la-Futaie, Mayenne A cracking little find this, its been 2/3rds restored and the other end left as it was found. I think a Gabelou is some sort of soldier employed to crack down on smugglers, but cannot be sure yet.

Le Couperon submitted by Adam Stanford on 25th Nov 2004. Situated on the promontory at the east side of Rozel Bay in the NE corner of jersey, roofed with seven capstones and surrounded by 18 upright stones. It dates from approximately 3000BC and was covered with a long mound, but now is completely exposed as a result of poor excavation in the last century. The conglomerate stones form a rectangular chamber 8m long and 0.9m wide and 0.9m high, surrounding it is a rectangular enclosure. When it was excavated, potsherds and flints were found. An interest...

Log Text: Recent work carried out to remove spray-paint grafitti, by powerwasher. End stones now have areas clean of lichen.
A private garden backs onto the site with some litter and builder's rubbish and a disused outhouse rather detracts from these impressive stones.
A Jersey National Trust employee found a Roman coin whilst strimming in 1999 (but then immediately lost it again).

Le Pinacle submitted by daved on 11th Mar 2004. Le Pinacle is a huge natural outcrop of red granite under which runs a 300mm seam of Dolerite. The Dolerite was mined in the Neolithic & Bronze Age for making polished stone axeheads which have turned up all over western Europe. In front you can just make out 2 Bronze Age parallel walls and a Romano Celtic temple incorporated in a Neolithic eclosure. You can pick up worked Neolithic flints incl. transverse arrow heads on the nearby excavation spoil heap.
