The settlement at Västra Vång is placed in close proximity to the Johannishus ridge. This partly prominent esker constitutes the dominant landscape feature of the region, providing the north-south-running valley with its specific character through a combination of undulating high-points and formerly numerous wet-areas. The higher terrains east and west of the valley consist of woodland, whereas the valley itself is almost exclusively dominated by agrarian land-use.  The archaeological landscape is characterized by graves of Bronze- and Iron Age date, placed at high-points in the terrain. The lower agrarian terrain within the valley shows evidence of settlement sites dated from the Neolithic and onwards. Only a few of these are surveyed and recorded. The Medieval village of Vång has not been affected by later agricultural land reform, and was since the 17th century, or possible earlier, divided into two units. One located east of the valley and one west. The village was since the late 17th century incorporated in and under the control of the estate of Johannishus. Evidence of earlier activity within the village have especially been recorded in connection with agricultural land surrounding the minor plateau in the middle of the valley (L1978:8860, RAÄ Hjortsberga 306 and surroundings). The investigation of these activities have produced dates from Pre-Roman Iron Age to late Viking Age.
