This round barrow is located on top of a small hill right next to a farm building. Almost on top of the barrow is a transformer station and three large high voltage lines meet just next to the barrow.
The barrow is around 20 metres in diameter and around 2,5 metres in height. The construction of the transformer station has damaged the barrow slightly in one of the sides. The barrow is covered with grass and three birch trees.
