Ancient Village or Settlement in Rogaland
This site is a very well preserved remains of a boat house, probably for longships probably from viking age. The marks are clearly visible and can be observed from the main road going east to west just above the site.
The walls of the boat house are around 15 metres in length and around 0,5 metres deep in the terrain, they are covered only with short grass and are easy to see.
