Mynydd Troed Long Barrow is a Neolithic burial monument located in Breconshire, Wales, dating to the Neolithic period. The barrow forms part of the significant concentration of megalithic funerary monuments found across the Brecon Beacons region, reflecting the ritual and ceremonial practices of early agricultural communities in prehistoric Wales. The monument survives as an elongated earthwork, characteristic of long barrow construction, and would have functioned as a communal burial place for members of the local Neolithic population. Its preservation and scheduled status under Cadw demonstrate its archaeological importance as evidence of Neolithic settlement patterns and funerary traditions in upland southern Wales.
