Menhir Fourchu submitted by TheCaptain on 6th Sep 2013. This is a nice menhir stood at the side of the road just to the east of Lezonnais. It is about 3.5 metres tall, 1.5 metres wide and only 0.3 metres thick, and has a nicely forked shape at the top, hence its name, and a sort of nose on one side.

Log Text: Extremely overgrown, with the large stone covered in ivy, and the smaller ones lost in the ferns and brambles. (Not a good place to wear shorts I learned the hard way.)

Log Text: I noticed that these rather unassuming menhirs were on a website for Brittany tourism, so we decided to check them out as they were on our route. While they are nice, it is a bit of a mystery why the website would chose this site as one of about. five megalithic sites in all of Brittany to be featured.
