Harrod Low long barrow is a Neolithic funerary monument located in Derbyshire, England. The structure takes the form of an earthen mound characteristic of long barrows constructed during the early Neolithic period, roughly between 4000 and 3000 BCE. Such monuments served as communal burial places and represent some of the earliest monumental architecture in Britain, reflecting the ritual and social practices of early farming communities. The barrow survives as an archaeological feature of considerable importance for understanding Neolithic settlement patterns and burial customs in the East Midlands region.
