| Hulbjerg Jættestue | Passage Grave | Denmark | Fyn, Langeland and Islands | Visited | 23rd Jul 2015 | 5 | 5 | 5 | Superb site, one of the best in Langeland. The approach as described by Drew Parsons is lovely as the entrance can be seen from afar. Inside there are some lintels at the left side, probably to support the structure. I guess they are modern? | 100 | 96 |
| Herslev Kumlehøj Dysser | Long Barrow | Denmark | Fyn, Langeland and Islands | Visited | 22nd Jul 2015 | 3 | 3 | 3 | On the 305 road Rudkøbing - Lindelse after about 6 km at your left. if you see the road to Herslev you have just overshot by 500 meters.

| Herslev Dyssekammer | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | Denmark | Fyn, Langeland and Islands | Visited | 22nd Jul 2015 | 3 | 4 | 4 | This site was accessible in July 2015, even when crops were growing. There is a heritage sign. No parking place at hand, but indeed 100 meters south on the 305 road there is one. Not a spectacular site, but somehow I liked its simplicity and its location. | 100 | 93 |
| Hesselbjerg Langdysse | Long Barrow | Denmark | Fyn, Langeland and Islands | Visited | 22nd Jul 2015 | 3 | 2 | 5 | This site was a great disappointment in July 2015.

| Lindeskov Hestehave Stenkiste | Cist | Denmark | Fyn, Langeland and Islands | Visited | 20th Jul 2015 | 3 | 4 | 4 | To be honest, more impressed by the tree closeby than by the monument itself. But not a bad place.
The dolmen was excavated by archaeologists. It contained grave goods from a burial of the early Neolithic period, approximately 3500 BC. In the mound above the chamber there were cremation graves f... Read More |

| Lindeskov Dyssekammer | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | Denmark | Fyn, Langeland and Islands | Saw from a distance | 20th Jul 2015 | 2 | 2 | 4 | As it is on a private road, you can only spot it from far. Can easily be seen while walking from Lindeskov Langdysse to Hestehave. | 100 | 83 |
| Lindeskov Langdysse | Long Barrow | Denmark | Fyn, Langeland and Islands | Visited | 20th Jul 2015 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Now, this is what you really call a long barrow. What a giant! Signposted from road 323 from Orbaek to Ringe. Lots of parking space.
