Chambered Tomb in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania

The impressive remains of a former much bigger tomb.
It is like 50% of what it has been. Chambers width of apprx 2m
would fit to a tomb with at least 4 mighty stones on the long sides;

Description
Chambered Tomb in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania

The impressive remains of a former much bigger tomb.
It is like 50% of what it has been. Chambers width of apprx 2m
would fit to a tomb with at least 4 mighty stones on the long sides;
but these are lost, obviously the farmer plowed too close in former times;
or they have been stolen. The remaining stones are close to the barrows edge.
Both of the remaining two capstones are littered with cup marks.
Excuse me if I used the word "littered" before, but this one is REALLY
littered. Over and over. Starfields ! The Milky Way !

Located close to a street, parking is risky.
