This cist on the slopes of the Suseån river valley is 3000 years old (the time of transition from Late Stone Age to Bronze Age in Scandinavia).

The burial chamber is 1 x 2.5 metres long. The bottom was covered by cobble stones. In 1974 when it was investigated only an arrow and a flint scraper were found.

It is signposted and lies about 50 metres east of the road.
