Long barrow 600 yards (550 metres) south-east of Vanity is a Neolithic communal burial monument located in Wiltshire. The barrow represents the characteristic funerary architecture of the early farming communities of southern Britain during the fourth and third millennia before the present. As a long barrow, it would originally have comprised an earthen mound covering a stone or timber mortuary structure, serving as a focal point for collective ritual interment across several generations. The monument survives as an upstanding archaeological feature and retains sufficient integrity to contribute to understanding of Neolithic settlement patterns and burial practices in the Wiltshire landscape.
