This ancient monument complex near Swinhope Lodge in Lincolnshire comprises three distinct periods of settlement spanning over two millennia. The Neolithic long barrow represents the earliest phase of monumental construction on the site, typical of Neolithic burial practice in the fourth and third millennia BC. Iron Age hut circles, likely dating to the first millennium BC, indicate domestic settlement during the pre-Roman Iron Age, whilst the Romano-British settlement represents occupation during the Roman period following the conquest of Britain in AD 43. Together, these remains demonstrate continuity of human activity and land use across successive prehistoric and Roman periods in this part of Lincolnshire.
