Graig Boeth Hut Circles

Situated within the Pennant Lliw moor and high to the south of the Afon Lliw this pair of hut circles lie in the shadow of Craig Boeth crag. Lying about 10m apart the hut circles occupy the high ground within an otherwise marshy landscape. There's a narrow stream to the west of them that meanders northerly to meet with the Afon Lliw.

Hügelgräberfeld Stendell

Barrow Cemetery south-east of the village of Stendell in Brandenburg. Most of the barrows are quite shallow and therefore not all of them are easily recognisable due to the vegetation. Forestry workers have left deep tracks on some of the barrows with their equipment.
In the northern part of the burial ground is an elongated stone that may be a fallen menhir. The cup-marked stone nearby is said to have been part of a stone circle, so it is possible that there were other menhirs there.
