Hornbæk Plantage Rundhøj 9
Hornbæk Plantage Rundhøj 9 submitted by NeolithicFanatic : The badly eroded mound. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Round Barrow(s) in Hovedstaden

Unlike all the other burial mounds in the area that located all along the top of the cliff or in the forest, this one is located down at the modern coastal line. The burial mound is located next to one of the beach footpaths and is easily missed as just being a lump in the forest floor. The mound has been badly damaged by erosion over the years as the northern part of it has fallen onto the beach below, exposing the interior of the mound. The remaining section of the mound measures 10 metres in diameter and 1 metre in height.
