Hazleton long barrows is a Neolithic chambered tomb complex located near Gloucestershire, comprising both north and south barrows which date to the early fourth millennium BCE. The monuments are characteristic examples of the Cotswold-Severn tradition of megalithic construction, featuring stone-built internal chambers designed for communal burial. Excavation has revealed that the barrows contained multiple inhumations along with artefactual material consistent with early Neolithic mortuary practice, providing significant evidence for understanding Neolithic funerary customs and settlement patterns in the Cotswolds region. Both barrows have been designated as scheduled monuments in recognition of their archaeological and historical importance.
