Norrby stenar
Norrby stenar submitted by DrewParsons : A lovely site comprising almost 50 standing stones most of which are set in four circles. September 2011. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Gravfält comprising four stone circles and other standing stones in Närke

This Gravfält comprises almost 50 stones, some of which are set in four circles and mark the location of graves. Two of the circles have one stone missing. Originally each circle comprised either 9 or 7 stones. There are sets of stones outside of the circle arrangements too. The Gravfält dates to between 400 AD and 1050 AD. It is located to the east of the town of Hallsberg on the road to Sannahed and Kumla. The circles are on the south side of this road between the villages of Berga and Norrby. There is a grass area in front of the stones and if you are careful you can ease your car onto it.
