Langdysse 1

The north-west-south-east oriented long dyssey is about 21.0 m long, 8.0 m wide and slightly disturbed. The only chamber has its entrance in the southwest and measures 2.7 × 2.55 m outside and 2.25 × 0.80 m inside. The chamber stones protrude 40–50 cm from the hill. The chamber height is 1.50 m in the south and 2.1 m in the north. The northwest end of the hill is 7.9 m from the chamber. In the middle of the northern end of the long hill is a high 1.5 m high stone. There must have been a similar stone at the other end.

Store Rise Langdysse 2 is a rectangular dolmen in a 2.3 m high 10.0 × 6.8 m measuring east-west oriented long hill. The hill is bordered with 27 relatively small curbs (10 in the south, 12 in the north, three in the west and two in the east). The 2.1 × 1.5 m measuring chamber consists of five supporting stones and the threshold stone . During the restoration, the curbs were set up, the hill filled in, a capstone was placed on the chamber and five bearing stones, a threshold stone and a gangue stone were set or attached.
