Gallery tomb scheme

The Allée couverte des Jeannetières is 300 m east of the village of Le Liet , on the edge of the Trégomar road to the west; to Plédéliac in the east. The site is in the Côtes-d'Armor department in Brittany in France . The Saint-Rieul river runs 200 meters away. The ground monument was discovered by Victor Leconiat in 1895.

The north-south oriented remains of a gallery grave lie in a hedge. A dozen blocks are visible in a row. Most of them appear to be bearing stones on the same side of the gallery. A block at the south end could be a capstone.

The Guihalon menhir is located in the forest north of Trégomar.
