Long barrow 370m south-south-east of Castle Farm is a Neolithic communal burial monument located in Somerset, England. The site represents the characteristic funerary architecture of the Early Neolithic period, when such long earthworks served as collective tombs for deceased community members. The barrow's preservation and official designation within the National Heritage List for England (entry 1011525) reflects its archaeological importance as evidence of early farming settlement and ritual practice in the region. As with many such monuments, the structure would originally have comprised an earthen mound covering stone or timber burial chambers, though its current physical condition and any remaining structural elements are subject to archaeological recording.
