Tobacco road.

On the other side of the river Vezere to Chateau du Losse, 10 minutes drive away from Les Granges, are several large fields of tobacco plants. When we first came as tourists to this area about 20 years ago, the whole of this area appeared to be growing it, now, what must be a sign of the times, there is very little. At least some of the old traditional wooden barns will still be used in the drying process in a few weeks time when the leaves are harvested.
