Le Couperon submitted by Adam Stanford on 25th Nov 2004. Situated on the promontory at the east side of Rozel Bay in the NE corner of jersey, roofed with seven capstones and surrounded by 18 upright stones. It dates from approximately 3000BC and was covered with a long mound, but now is completely exposed as a result of poor excavation in the last century.

An interest...

Faldouet Dolmen submitted by attlebax on 16th May 2011. This site is well marked from the road and is on the Jersey map. The lane outside is narrow and has high banks so it is best to park just up the road. Not easy for any wheelchair users.
