The Neolithic long barrow 280m south of Burgh Top Farm is a burial monument of the early Neolithic period located in Lincolnshire. The site represents the funerary practices of early farming communities in eastern England, typically dating to the fourth millennium BC. Long barrows of this type served as communal burial chambers and were constructed using earthwork mounds, often oriented east-west, reflecting the ritual and social importance of these monuments to their builders. The survival of this example contributes to understanding the distribution and characteristics of Neolithic burial architecture across the English Midlands and East Anglia region.
