The monument is a Neolithic long barrow situated 380 metres south-east of Swinhope Lodge in Lincolnshire. The site comprises evidence of occupation spanning multiple prehistoric and Roman periods, including Iron Age hut circles and a Romano-British settlement that overlay the earlier barrow. The long barrow itself represents a Neolithic communal burial monument of the fourth or third millennium BC, whilst the later Iron Age and Romano-British features attest to the continuing significance of the location through subsequent millennia. The archaeological remains reflect changing patterns of land use and settlement across more than two thousand years of prehistory and Roman occupation.
