Overview

History & significance

This monument is a Neolithic long barrow and Bronze Age round barrow situated approximately 680 metres east-south-east of Manor House in Lincolnshire. The site comprises two distinct burial structures from different prehistoric periods, representing continuity of ritual burial practice across roughly two millennia of prehistory. The long barrow element dates to the Neolithic period and would have served as a communal burial monument, whilst the round barrow represents a later Bronze Age phase of monument use or construction at this location. The juxtaposition of these two burial forms on the same site reflects the archaeological palimpsest common to many English barrow complexes, where successive generations reused or built adjacent to earlier monumental landscapes.
