Hoststeine submitted by Martin_L on 12th Feb 2011. The site viewed from the West. February 2011.
Sprockhoff identified 4 orthostats and one capstone [1]. He mentioned a total number of eight preserved megaliths + fragments. The structure was already destroyed when Wächter examined it [1], [2]. Despite this damages Sprockhoff assumed the original ground-plan could be clarified by an excavation.

Horneburg Langbett 4 submitted by Martin_L on 27th Apr 2010. The chamber of the kerbed long-barrow viewed from above (pole aerial)
As usual the orthostats are slightly inclined towards the chamber, but due to erosion of the earthwork the eastern chamber endstones' inclination increased significantly. The capstones C2 and C3 are robbed otherwise the chamber is well preserved. Especially the western third of the chamber and the passage section are in very good condition. April 2010

Horneburg Langbett 3 submitted by Martin_L on 11th May 2010. View East along the remains of the approx. 50m x 6m kerbed and chambered long-barrow. The chamber is located just east of barrows' center and visible near the center of the picture. Only the eastern end-stone and the adjacent orthostat of the northern long-side are preserved in situ. Hence the original size of the chamber is unknown. According to the size of the pit resulting from destruction it may have had 2 or 3 capstones. To the right (South): one of the very few remaining kerbstones is vis...
