Wallem is spelled Valheim today.
Enter this map
Write "nedre valheim", click on "SĜK" and choose nr A "Ĝystein Valheim" owner of Nedre Valheim today.
Good luck.
View of the fields on Nedre Valheim where remains after two houses, 80 tombs and 250 piles of stone from the Iron age are found, Link
It looks like the link above is the same as the frontapage to Directorate for Cultural Heritage, quite a detour.
Upper right corner is searchable, "ask" for nedre valheim and enter 1. or 2. link.
