Crippets long barrow is a Neolithic communal burial monument located in Gloucestershire, approximately 680 metres north east of Dryhill Farm. The barrow is aligned broadly east-west and survives as an elongated earthwork mound characteristic of long barrow monuments of the Early Neolithic period, dating to around 3800-3000 BC.
