This passage grave or gånggrift stands in a mound approximately 18 metres in diameter and 1.6 metres high. The chamber is 6.7 metres long and is orientated NNE to SSW. To reach the site: Travelling from Tiarp westwards towards Åsle turn north 200 metres before the turning to Åsle church. Drive up this lane for 450 metres and just before the farm house on the left you can see the mound located in a paddock 30 metres west of the lane. Reference: Riksantikvarieämbetet Fornsök: Åsle 23:1
