Round Barrow(s) in Hordaland

This round barrow used to be much larger but after excavation in 1989 the height is a lot smaller. It is located in a grassy field in a hill just above a local farm. It was found a sword in the barrow but nothing more findings are mentioned.

The barrow today is 25 metres in diameter and 2 metres in height, it used to be much more impressive height of around 5 metres.

Around the farm buildings there were several more barrows, some have been destroyed and some are only small remains left of. The barrows were called "Tinghaugane".
