This site consists of a ship-shaped stone setting. It is located in a small garden area under two large oak trees. The small garden with the short grass makes the setting easy to see and photograph.
The setting consists of 14 stones. 6 on each of the longer sides and two taller ones in the ends. The highest corner stone is 1,9 metres in height. The other stones range in size from 40cm to 80cm in height. The setting is 22 metres in length and oriented north-east to south-west. It is believed to be from the older iron age.
