Futterkamp 1

Futterkamp 1 (Sprockhoff #203) aka Ruserberg LA5 is a 27 x 6 metre long barrow oriented in a north-east-south-west direction. The enclosure stones are largely intact and there are two burial chambers in it. All the supporting stones from the north-eastern chamber are still preserved. Each long side has two supporting stones, one longer and one shorter, with the unequal stones always facing each other. The north-western narrow side has a keystone, while the south-eastern side is only half closed by a narrow stone. Another half-height stone marks the entrance. The chamber measures 2 x 1 metre. The south-western chamber has three supporting stones on the south-western long side and two on the north-eastern side. The keystone in the north-west is also present.
