A Neolithic long barrow is a burial mound situated approximately 465 metres north-west of Dexthorpe in Lincolnshire. The monument dates to the Neolithic period and represents a characteristic form of communal burial architecture typical of early farming communities in Britain. Long barrows of this type were constructed as earthen or stone mounds, often with internal chambers, and served as focal points for ritual activity and the interment of multiple individuals over extended periods. The barrow at this location forms part of the significant concentration of prehistoric funerary monuments in Lincolnshire, reflecting the region's importance during the early Neolithic occupation of the English landscape.
