Full Description

E 361:
This dyke is running west north-west for approximately 30 metres (downslope). The stones, which are rarely visible at the base of the dyke are mostly covered with turf. The area is now used as a cow grazing area.
Interpretation: This dyke probably belonged once to a larger field system, which cannot be seen anymore (only the cultivation complex E 360, 10 metres to the south.)
