Oldendorfer Fuhrenkamp (1) submitted by Martin_L on 27th Mar 2009. Western part. The numbers refer to the sketch plan. Remains of a partly destroyed, large chambered tomb orientated nearly East-West. At least 17 stones are visible nowadays, but still deeply embedded into the eroded barrow. Possibly other stones are still covered. Earthwork measuring approximately 32m x 12m x 2 m (May 2008).

Oldendorfer Fuhrenkamp (2) submitted by Martin_L on 25th Feb 2011. Aerial view from the West. Eastern chamber part. In brackets: robbed.
Only 4 orthostats are preserved: The eastern chamber end orthostat and one adjacent orthostat of each long side. When Sprockhoff et al. examined the site there was another orthostat in situ at position N3 (counting from the East). Nowadays this is not visible anymore, but instead there is a largely buried orthostat at position N2. Seemingly in situ.

Log Text: Unfortunately, it is very overgrown at the moment and can hardly be seen. No direct way to the grave, so you have to cross the field. Best to visit in autumn and winter.

Klein Stavern Steingrab 5 submitted by Martin_L on 19th Jan 2009. Standing at tombs' eastern end looking towards west. The destruction of this monument fortunately was stopped, but half of the kerbstones are missing. Others have drill-holes to blow them to pieces. Most of the remaining kerbstones are fallen. Possible this is a result of activities to remove them and/or prepare them for blasting (April 2008)

Log Text: Unfortunately, the entire area has probably been weeded and has been severely affected. An information board was probably destroyed in the storm a few weeks ago. I hope that the area will shine again in better splendor in the future.
