A simple Dolmen, without tumulus has been listed under the name "Dolmen des Grouges", it is located at a place called "la Pierre Levée or le Bois des Chailles" north of Esnord on the RD187 and a rural road in facilitates access on foot, by bike or by car. It is a north-south oriented monument, with the current entrance being to the northwest. It is a simple dolmen with a rectangular chamber and small in size, 1.85m by 1m. The table, a simple slab of local limestone, rests on three orthostats which are rough irregular blocks. The monument, covered with mosses and lichens, has been excavated and some stones have been restored to their original position.

The wood behind the monument is filled with stones of the same origin.... do they suggest the existence of several dismantled dolmens?
