Long barrow 400m north-east of Chalk Hill Cottage is a Neolithic burial monument located in Gloucestershire. The site represents the characteristic earthen barrow tradition of the Early Neolithic period, typical of communal burial practices in the Cotswold region during the fourth millennium before Christ. As a long barrow, it would have functioned as a collective burial chamber, serving the ritual and funerary needs of the local Neolithic community. The monument survives as an earthwork and remains an important archaeological record of early agricultural settlement patterns and mortuary practice in the English Midlands.
