Long barrow 100m north of Oldfield Wood is a Neolithic communal burial monument located in Gloucestershire. The barrow dates to the Neolithic period and represents the type of monumental funerary architecture characteristic of early agricultural communities in the Cotswolds region. As a long barrow, the structure would have served as a collective tomb, likely containing the remains of multiple individuals and reflecting the social organisation and ritual practices of Neolithic society. The monument's survival to the present day, despite considerable antiquity, demonstrates its construction from substantial materials and the durability of its earthen form.
