The gullhaug barrow "Gold barrow" is located at the edge of a grain field next to a country road. Sadly it is so overgrown with large and small trees not much can be made out of the shape. According to kulturminnesøk website the barrow is a round barrow, around 25 metres in diameter and 2,5 metres in height.
