Long Barrow in Lower Saxony, Bremen
According to von Estorff / Sprockhoff:
A long barrow, which was preserved at 7 m width to 20 m in length. The direction of the tomb was certainly, as the illustration indicates, east-west. The enclosure had four stones on the north side and seven on the south long side, apparently in situ, but it was already full of gaps. The burial chamber in the eastern part was at an angle to the longitudinal direction of the tomb. It had only three carriers of the southern long side and just one support of the SE narrow side. von Estorff gives her a rough width of 4.7 m to 1.5 m.
