The cemetery comprises eight closely grouped round barrows, of which six survive as visible earthworks, representing a concentrated zone of funerary activity typical of the second millennium BC. The barrows exhibit the characteristic domed or bowl-shaped profiles of Bronze Age burial mounds, though their condition and preservation vary across the group.
