The cemetery consists of 27 round barrows and one large long barrow. The largest barrow is in the middle of the cemetery, it is around 20 metres in diameter and around 3 metres in height and has a beautiful shape and no visible damage.
The majority of barrows, around 10 of them are between 10 and 15 metres in diameter and from 1 to 2 metres in height. Most of them also have clear ditches around them. The smaller barrows are 5 to 8 metres in diameter and though they are not very elevated from the terrain they are still visible.
