Long barrow south-west of Imber is a Neolithic chambered burial monument situated on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire. The structure dates to the early Neolithic period, representing the monumental funerary architecture characteristic of the fourth millennium BC in southern England. Long barrows of this type typically contained internal stone or timber chambers where communal burial of the dead took place, and this example reflects the construction methods and social practices of prehistoric farming communities establishing themselves in the British landscape. The monument survives as an earthwork on Salisbury Plain, where it forms part of the notable concentration of Neolithic and Bronze Age remains in this region.
