Log Text: Very impressing! The local people call it "Kokholm Dyssen" they also refer to it as a Round Barrow, because there only is a small circular area back around the two unusual Mega Megaliths that the two burial chambers are made of.
Originally it wasn't my intention to visit this one today, but two independant local barrow owner said that visiting this "Kokholm Dysse" is a must. I totally agree with them!
