Round Barrow(s) in Vlaams-Brabant
Circular barrow with two rows of poles found on the plot, dated to the Middle Bronze Age. Surrounding it were found various Iron Age urns, as well as Roman Era finds.
Residential area bordering a rural zone, so now somebody is just living on top of an ancient graveyard. Only redeeming ambient factor are the fields and Dijle river to the north.
