Round Barrow(s) in Nord-Trøndelag

There is no information in the kulturminnesøk website about this site except from beeing a iron age site, coming up on the site it is easy to see it is a very pretty round barrow located in a garden inside a neighbourhood surrounded by houses. The barrow is only covered in grass and it is easy to see and have a very pretty shape. I estimate on eyesight it is around 15 metres across and around 2 metres in height and doesnt seem to have any damage. The neighbourhood is on a large natural hill and from the barrow it is a very pretty view over the surrounding landscape.
