laye — " et butant sur la Carrefour des Trois Vues." (Ibid 1793). It 

 was therefore at the junction of the Rohais and Foulon Roads, the 

 latter having replaced the old " Rue de la Pouquelaye." (8.) 



La Pouquelaye des RohaiS, or La Pouquelaye de Bas.— A 

 dolmen which stood farther down the Foulon Road and gave its name 

 to three or four fields near the borders of St. Peter-Port and St. 

 Andrew's. One of them forms the S.W. corner of the estate of 

 Swissville, and probably the site of the dolmen. It is mentioned in 

 all the Perchages of F. le R. from 1573 onwards, also in many 

 "Lettres sous Sceau," and Billes de Partages of the Guilles des 

 Rohais to whom it belonged. (9.) 



Les TrepiedS. — Two or more dolmens situated in St. Andrew's 

 Parish on the crest of the hills west of Le Vauquiedor Valley, oppo- 

 site La Roque a 1'Or, gave their name to three fields now forming 

 part of the estate of Le Grand Courtil, to the west of Havilland 

 Hall. On a map of the estate of Le Vauquiedor (as Havilland Hall 

 was then called), which belonged to Mr. Joshua Gosselin at the end 

 of the 18th century, these fields were called "La Jaonniere des Tre- 

 pieds," "Le Trepied" and " La Jaonniere des Trepieds ou des Fau- 

 connaires," and, in the " Livre de Perchage du fief Le Roi," St. 

 Andrew's, 1910, " Le Jardin, Courtil et Jaonniere des Trepieds." 

 Mr. F. C. Lukis states ini his Note Book that the then owner of Le 

 Grand Courtil, Mr. Thomas Marquand, had informed him that from 

 time to time when breaking up the ground in these fields he had 

 come across masses of limpet shells mixed with black earth or ashes, 

 and also that seme of his men came across a stone hammer head 

 which they broke, and he likewise found when planting an apple- 

 tree the fine polished stone ring now in the Lukis Museum. The 

 largest stone hatchet, also in the Museum, was found at Le 

 Vauquiedor, and four others of the same Channel Island type were 

 found in a small cist at La Roque a l'Or, evidently placed there as 

 an offering to the gods. (10-11.) 



Le Trepied des Fauconnaires, another dolmen of the same 

 group stood somewhere near Les Fauconnaires, but its exact site is 

 uncertain. "Le Courtil du Trepied des Fauconnaires" is mentioned 

 in the Bille de Partage of Thomas Ollivier of Le Mont Durant, 

 1749. (12.) 



La Longue Pierre des Fauconnaires stood on the farm 

 belonging to Mr. James T. Mahy, and gave its name to " Le Courtil 

 de La Longue Pierre." It was nearly opposite to the house formerly 

 belonging to the de Jerseys des Fauconnaires. A cross. La Croix des 

 Fauconnaires, once stood near it. This menhir was the fourth and 

 most westerly of the group. (13.) 



Le Trepied. — Another dolmen' of this name stood somewhere midway 

 between Les Fauconnaires and the Foulon. Bv "Lettres sous 

 Sceau " of 14th October, 1574, " Martin Navetel fils Pierre de St. 

 Andre a cause de sa femme," sold to " Nicolas Caraie le plus viell fils 

 Collas," " le pendant du Trepy entre les Fauconnaires et le Foulon."

La Petite Pouquelaye. — The last dolmen of this group, of which 

 we know, stood somewhere on the estate of Les Rohais. cc line piece

 de Partage" of Jaques Guille, des Rohais, 15th January, 1668/9. (15.) 



It will be seen from the above that scattered round the 

 hills of the valleys of Le Foulon and Le Vauquiedor, 

 extending from Les Fauconnaires to the West and to Les 

 Granges at the East, and covering in all little more than half
