Hunengrab77 visited on 9th Sep 2023 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 4 Access: 3 Again a site from which it was very difficult to figure out what was there originally. Quite difficult to reach, in the woods right next to a cornfield. Between this site and the field was a deep pit, probably dug for animals to drink and get shot by hunters. Were the stones moved for this drinking pond? It also looked like some stones were added, probably dug out of the cornfield. It would be quite a job to figure out what is authentic, it looks totally different from Sprockhoff’s drawings. Is there any protection of sites like this?
Destroyed Chambered Tomb in the remains of an 18m diameter tumulus,
just some 1m high. The remaining stones don't show a recognizable
structure.
