Ce menhir a été arraché de son emplacement en 1940 par les villageois de la Rogère, commune de la Bernerie. Il a été implanté au carrefour du Poteau, mais a été déplacé une seconde fois, pour l'ériger près du moulin Burlot, près de la propriété de la Jarrie. Il a été "christiannisé" en 1959 avec l'implantation d'une croix de granit à son sommet.
