Grafheuvel Renkum (45955) submitted by Uralsdaughter on 29th Aug 2018. Round barrow. On a campsite. Some tents are visible behind it in the picture. Even though it is on a campsite it is very pretty out in the open on the highest point in the field (instead of the forest).

Grafheuvels Bennekom (45413) submitted by Uralsdaughter on 29th Aug 2018. Round barrow. There is big sign next to a very small road, from there it is a very short walk on a footpath. Dutch monument website says there are 2, but either there is just one or the second one is very small and not very visible. This is the big one.

Grafheuvel en Urnenveld Bennekom (45414) submitted by Uralsdaughter on 31st Aug 2018. Translation of the sign:
Prehistoric burial grounds/cemetery. This prehistoric barrow is over 4000 years old en was build in 3 phases. The first hill was made by people from the Bell-beaker culture. Only an imprint of the deceased was visible in the sand.
A small earthenware cup, seven flint arrowheads, two flint knives and a stone wristprotector were found in the shallow grave. The hill was raised twice more in the bronze age, after someone was buried again in the centre.

Temple Wood S submitted by funsize on 4th Jun 2007. This is a cracking site. Large cobble mound with slivers of upright slabs and a central cist. Very accessible and one of many impressive sites within a small area of the Kilmartin Valley. This shows the larger cairn, there is a smaller one ringed by trees a stones throw to the south west.

Nether Largie standing stone

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)

Visited: Yes on 19th Aug 2018. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4
Nether Largie standing stone submitted by caradoc68 on 18th Aug 2012. This standing stone is in the middle of a field, a short distance of the footpath. The farmer does not like you being there and might put a angry looking bull in the field to put visitors off. Cant find a lot written about this stone or why it seems to be leaning at 45 degrees and pointing to the southeast.
