- In Grindheim sieht man den Zusammenhang zw. Kirche, Friedhof und vorchristlicher Grabstätte, wie in Støle. Hier war früher Etnes grösstes Gräberfeld mit über 200 Hügelgräbern. Heute ist fast alles bebaut und nur noch vereinzelt sind grosse Hügelgräber a

Today most of it is cultivated farmland and only some large mounds now remain in the fields. To the far south is a large site with minor mounds dating from the Bronze Age. The timbered medieval church was built in 1728. Its old interior is still intact and the church bells date from 1628 and 1751, respectively. By the north wall stands a 3.75m runic stone, which was found in the cemetery wall. It is a memorial stone from about 1050 with a carved cross and the runic inscription: "Tormod erected this stone in honour of Tormod Svidade, his father". The stone cross in front of the church dates from the period immediately after the Christianisation of Norway.

I dag er det meste oppdyrka og bare enkelte store hauger er igjen på jordene. Lengst sør ligger et stort felt med småhauger. Gravplassen er brukt siden bronsealderen. Kirken er en middelaldekirke fra 1728, bygd i tre. kirkeklokker fra 1628 og 1751. Inntil nordveggen står en 3,75m høy runestein som ble funnet i kirkegårdsmuren. På denne er det hogd inn et kross samt runeinnskrifta: "Tormod reiste denne steinen etter Tormod Svidande, far sin". Det er en minnestein fra ca.1050.
