Long barrow south of Scamblesby is a Neolithic burial monument situated in Lincolnshire. The structure belongs to the long barrow tradition characteristic of the Neolithic period, a form of communal burial architecture that emerged in Britain during the early fourth millennium BCE. Long barrows of this type typically comprised earthen or stone-built mounds constructed over burial chambers and were often used for collective inhumation over extended periods. This example represents the archaeological evidence of early farming communities that settled in the Lincolnshire Wolds region during the Neolithic era.
