Dolmen de la Motte
Date Added: 10th Jun 2012
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: France (Pays de la Loire:Maine-et-Loire 49)
Visited: Yes on 4th May 2010
Dolmen de la Motte submitted by DrewParsons on 4th May 2010. At first glance the slot like cuts in the capstone looked like an earlier attempt to split it into two, but a closer examination showed them to be natural openings which may have given it some special significance to the ancients who constructed the site.

Dolmen de la Crête
Date Added: 25th Jun 2012
Site Type: Passage Grave
Country: France (Pays de la Loire:Mayenne (53))
Visited: Would like to visit
Dolmen de la Crête submitted by TheCaptain on 9th May 2005. Dolmen de la Crête, Mayenne.
On my third attempt to find this allée couverte I didn’t give up, although the last signpost I saw vaguely pointed into the middle of the forest, and any of three tracks could have been the right one !
After almost an hour of searching I found it. It’s becoming well overgrown despite fairly recent excavations.
