The Bergerac-Cahors road cuts through the commune of Baneuil which includes the hamlets of Fontenille and Bailleries.
Palaeolithic and Neolithic sarcophagi and a 1.45m high, sandstone dolmen bear witness to a long ago past.
Legend has it that this megalithic served as the gravestone for an english general killed during the Wars of Religion.

What to see in the commune: the domed, twelfth-century parish church with a Romanesque façade and wall-belfry. The nave opens onto a fortified choir and the triumphal arch is decorated with sculptured capitals.
Also worth visiting: the dolmen and the
castle.
