The grave is located on the western-most ridge of the grave field and is the northern most grave on that ridge. It is oriented almost directly east-west. The grave is some 10m in length but only half as wide. It slopes slightly so that the western stem of the boat is some 40cm lower than the eastern stem. The furrow for the boat seems to have been some 1-2 m deep.
