Molhem submitted by Shunt : Barrow Mounds #3 and 2 of the site Molhem in Peer, Belgium. Two of five mounds in the woods, from 3000BC to 600 BC. (Vote or comment on this photo)
The site of Molhem in Peer, Belgium, consists of five rather small burial mounds. The numbers 2 through 5 are in each other's neighbourhood, while the number 1 is situated a little remote from the others.

This first one can be reached from a forest road where there's space to park a few cars, and from this mound there's a path to another path where the others are situated next to. This path and the forest road can be reached from the 'Molhemstraat', the asphalt road next to the woods.

Unfortunately this site is infested with horseflies!
This picture shows the numbers 2 (front) and 3 and the information stand. The numbers 4 and 5 are on the left side of the picture.
