Overview

History & significance

The site represents the characteristic mortuary architecture of the early Neolithic period, when long barrows served as repositories for collective interments and ritual activity. The monument's survival in the landscape, despite the considerable passage of time and agricultural use of the surrounding land, attests to the substantial earthwork construction employed in its original design. As with many examples of this monument type distributed across southern England, it provides archaeological evidence for the settlement patterns and burial practices of early farming communities in the Neolithic period.
