Ville-Tinguy dolmen submitted by thecaptain on 20th Dec 2008. I have seen this described as an allée couverte, but it looked more like a simple dolmen to me, unless there is much of it ruined and not visible amongst the crops. At least one capstone is held up proudly in place for all to see as they drive past.
