Eight artificially raised burial mounds from the Iron Age (circa 700 BC), partially restored to their original state, the northeasternmost with a ring of poles as it once was. Several of the urns and pots discovered in 1962-63 were loaned by the National Excavation Service to the Grevenbroek Municipal Museum, Generaal Dempseylaan 1. Some remains were simply placed in a small hole. A northeast-facing grave in the shape of a keyhole was discovered near the road.
