La Pèira Dreta (Tournissan) submitted by richardfrance on 24th Feb 2008. It's a fairly clean-cut and rather phallic stone of 1.75 m. and has a face which could be said to point towards le Roc Troue - a suggestively gaping hole high up in a cliff above the village.
There is another menhir close by - with a story - to be visited soon.
