At the farm Røn is a large round barrow. It is however overgrown with tight forest and large trees and the details of the barrow is impossible to make out. There are also some old tracktors and farming machinery parked almost at the site blocking some of the view.
According to the Kulturminnesøk the barrow is around 25 metres in diameter and around 3-4 metres in height. However the shape cannot be made out. I hope someday the area and barrow can be cleaned up better!
