Blekendorf Steingrab
Blekendorf Steingrab submitted by Idwal : The hollow at the top showing the possible remains of a chamber. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Burial Chamber in Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg

A mound 1.6m high and 18-19m diameter. It is clearly visible from some distance away, slightly to the left of the track. I entered the forest by the clear track and opening from the road to the NE of the site and then after 50m took the less clearly defined track to the left.
On the SW side of the mound are about 15 stones in an arc around it. There is a hollow at the top with a few stones visible that may have been part of a chamber.
