Les Bordouès
Les Bordouès (or de Bordouès ; also called Grée Basse ) is an Allée couverte east of Monteneuf near Ploërmel in the Morbihan department in Brittany in France .
Les Bordouès are the remains of a small gallery grave about 8.0 meters long and 1.5 meters wide. Some complete but laterally tilted bearing stones and the chopped off remains of almost all other bearing stones, as well as a capstone halfway in situ, have been preserved . At the south end there is a small entrance to the main chamber, which is separated by a large plate. Much of the oval hill has been preserved.
During excavations in 1976, five polished axes were discovered.
About a kilometer away is the row of stones Pierres Droites and the Allée couverte La Loge Morinais .
