Remains of a Chambered Tomb in a forest near Twietfort.
Three orthostats on each long side.
One of the middle stones has fallen into the chamber.
The chamber is embedded into the ground, the former,
most likely three, capstones have been removed.
Outside the chamber we see some big stones,
the mighty one close the chamber shows some faint cupmarks.
Looks like the chamber had an entry in the corner,
there is a threshold stone in the ground between the orthostats.
A pair of smaller stones could be the remains of a passage.
