Close to the main country road and inside a small but very tight forest is a large burial cairn believed to be from the bronze age. The area is on a high and large hill overlooking the landscape to the south and from the hill it is a very nice view.
The cairn is 28 metres in diameter and 2,5 metres in height. It is for the most part overgrown with large and smaller trees and grass and can be very hard to make out despite its large size. There are also some farming trash and equipment on the cairn and also stones have been dumped on top it in later years making the cairn difficult to make out.
