location
Today about 16.0 meters long and 4.0 meters wide, northeast-southwest-oriented large stone grave is located on the "Archaeological Trail greed field " in the Fürstenauer mountains , north of Ueffeln to the forest east of the road "Golf Course" in Ankum in the district of Osnabrück in Lower Saxony . It is located around 300 to 350 m from the Grumfeld West systems in the south and Rickelmann 2 in the north.
The 12 × 2.4 m large chamber with the four remaining capstones and the remains of the hill are clearly visible. Today there is nothing to indicate that the tomb once had a border. E. Sprockhoff had drawn three more edging stones in his sketch. Most of the bearing stones are preserved in situ . Only traces of the hill have survived.
