Les Trois Pierres (Les Junies) submitted by theCaptain on 19th Jan 2011. This is dolmen in a beautiful woodland setting with lots of little oak trees growing in the rough limestone rock.
Is that a basin carved into the top of the capstone ?

Le chaos de Roquebert submitted by TheCaptain on 18th Jan 2011. Les Trois Cromlechs.
I wasn't quite sure what to make of these. There are three massive stones (probably up to 7 metres high) within about 20 metres of each other looking for all the world like they have been stood upright surrounded by lots and lots of other stones.

Dolmen du Pech (Cazals)
Trip No.21 Entry No.6 Date Added: 7th Nov 2018
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: France (Midi:Tarn-et-Garonne (82))
Visited: Yes on 28th Aug 2018. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 5
Dolmen du Pech (Cazals) submitted by thecaptain on 17th Jan 2006. Subject of an excavation in 1989, and reconstruction in 1992, this box tomb is now fenced in, presumably for protection, but it looks terribly ugly because of that.
The odd thing about this dolmen is the rectangular stone mound it is contained within, which has been subject to a perhaps over-enthusiastic reconstruction.

Finelle Dolmen submitted by TheCaptain on 6th Nov 2007. A bit to the west along the track running along the southern edge of the airfield, and you soon come to another dolmen.
Its a fairly standard southern French dolmen, with two 4 metre long sideslabs and a backstone between them, topped with a capstone. There is some evidence of a front closing stone.

Klecken Langbett submitted by greywether on 9th Jul 2005. This is nice. Surrounded by the almost obligatory trees but allowing in a little more light than usual. The cairn edges are very clear as is the form of the chamber.
