Grim's Mound is a Bronze Age bowl barrow located approximately 600 metres north-north-west of Grimblethorpe Hall in Lincolnshire. The monument consists of a roughly circular earthen mound characteristic of Bronze Age funerary practice in England, constructed to cover a burial or burials beneath. Such barrows typically date from the Bronze Age period, roughly 2200 to 800 BCE, and represent an important phase of monumental burial tradition in prehistoric Britain. The mound survives as a landscape feature of archaeological significance, recording practices of ritual deposition and social commemoration during the later prehistory of the East Midlands.
