Allée couverte de la Tardivière

The Allée couverte de la Tardivière is about 200 meters east of the D220 (from Ernée to Carelles ), next to the road that leads to the farm of Tardivière in Ernée in the Mayenne department in France .

De la Tardivière is a west-east oriented small allée couverte in a ruinous condition from 6.0 to 7.0 meters in length, on a slight slope. It has eight pairs of lateral bearing stones and an end stone at the top. A large stone is the only surviving capstone at the lower, western end.

On the western side of the D220 is the Dolmen Contrie du Rocher about 250 m away .
