Description The site viewed from the North with Glane 1 visible in the background.
Glane 4 originally was covered by at least 3 capstones (external size at least 7m by 3m). As the chamber is deeply embedded into significant remains of a slightly oval barrow the ground-plan is not certain. The western long-side has preserved a row of three orthostats all in situ (W1,W2,W3) with W1 currently hardly visible. The adjacent orthostat (N) of the northern narrow-side is also preserved in situ. Other orthostats are either lost or hidden in the ground. A partly damaged capstone slipped into the gap between orthostat W2 and W3. Possibly it was capstone C2 (counting from the North). Another stone 15m South of the barrow most probably is a moved capstone (visible in this picture)
