Long barrow on Cold Kitchen Hill is a Neolithic burial monument situated in Wiltshire. The barrow is aligned east-west and consists of a substantial earthen mound that would have served as a communal burial structure typical of the Early Neolithic period, broadly dated to between 4000 and 3000 BCE. The monument represents the funerary practices of early farming communities in southern Britain and contributes to the significant concentration of Neolithic ceremonial and burial monuments found across Wiltshire's chalk downlands.
