Barrow Cemetery in Sør-Trøndelag
This site is a very new discovery, the burial cemetery was discovered as late as 2018 in spring just after the snow had melted and before the vegetation could start growing. The burials are more of the flat ground type only with a low setting of smaller stones on the surface to mark the graves.
The burial site consists of around 70 graves, they are mostly low small stone cairns from 1 to 4 metres in diameter and only 20-30 cm in height from the terrain. Some of them can be difficult to find in the vegetation despite the vegetation beeing short. It is located in a hill with a beautiful view over the Oppdalen valley to the west.
