Although other ground plans are more common there are several funnel beaker sites where trapezoidal chambers can be found. Nevertheless this trapezoidal chamber is even more unusual as the width difference of the both narrow ends is unusually large. Width in the west is only 3m (clear: 1,6m), while the chamber continuously broadens in the East up to a width of nearly 6m (clear: 3,8m).
