Porz Guen Dolmens
Date Added: 7th Sep 2024
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: France (Bretagne:Morbihan (56))
Visited: Yes on 7th May 2024. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 3
Porz Guen dolmens submitted by thecaptain on 14th Jun 2006. Remains of two dolmens on the clifftop to the north of the Porz Guen beach on the Cote Sauvage of the Quiberon Peninsula.
The more inland is the most complete, with one capstone surviving on the entry couloir. The chamber would probably have been roofed with large corbelled capstones around it, many of which survive fallen neaby.

Log Text: Long walk along the coastal path until we reached the Dolmen high up overlooking the sea, lovely site but now roped off to the public so could only get to within 10mtrs of the site.

Mont-Dol submitted by TheCaptain on 23rd Oct 2010. Mont Dol is a large granite rock outcrop, dramatically jutting up through the flat coastal marshlands of the Baie de Mont St-Michel to the north of the ancient city of Dol-de-Bretagne, and in some ways is rather like Mont St-Michel itself, although nowadays completely enclosed within farmed lands.

Long Stone (Minchinhampton) submitted by TimPrevett on 30th Dec 2009. Sunset 26/12/09 - an unplanned visit to a number of sites in the area.
No maps - just a vague 1970s guidebook - took us a couple hours to locate this having gone from Minchinhampton via Hampton Fields to Tetbury to Avening missing the stone at first by a narrow margin.
Having resigned ourselves to a long barrow this stone was spotted with just a few minutes before the sun went below the horizon.
A very impressive 7 feet tall stone, and make sure to see the smaller stone bisecting the wall ...

Log Text: Passing through the area we made a detour and were rewarded with this lovely stone, shrouded in mystery. Easy to access and worth a visit.
Lots of the nooks and crannies are filled with coins and other offerings.
The smaller fallen stone is easily found embedded in the dry stone wall.
