Long Barrow north of Castlethorpe is a Neolithic burial monument located in Lincolnshire. The barrow belongs to the tradition of long barrows characteristic of the early Neolithic period in Britain, typically dating to between 4000 and 3000 BCE. Such monuments served as communal burial structures, often incorporating stone or timber chambers where multiple individuals were interred over an extended period. The site remains significant for understanding early agricultural settlement patterns and burial practices in the East Midlands region during the transition from hunter-gatherer to farming societies.
