Long barrow 200yds (180m) W of Winton chalk pit is a Neolithic communal burial monument located in Sussex. The site represents the characteristic mortuary architecture of the early Neolithic period, when such elongated earthen mounds served as repositories for multiple interments within their internal chambers or passages. The barrow's proximity to the chalk pit indicates its survival within a landscape subject to extractive industries, a factor which has influenced its preservation and visibility in the archaeological record. As a scheduled ancient monument, it remains an important example of Sussex's Neolithic funerary tradition and its distribution across the South Downs region.
