The Neolithic long barrow, three Bronze Age bowl barrows and an enclosure located 600 metres and 785 metres east of Poke Holes Cottages is a complex of burial monuments in Lincolnshire that spans multiple millennia of prehistoric activity. The long barrow represents Neolithic funerary practice, typically dating to the fourth millennium before the present era, whilst the three bowl barrows indicate continued use of the landscape for burial during the Bronze Age. The associated enclosure, whose exact function remains characteristic of Bronze Age settlement archaeology, adds further evidence of intensive prehistoric occupation and ritual activity in this area. Together, these monuments constitute a significant archaeological palimpsest demonstrating the sustained ceremonial and domestic importance of this Lincolnshire location across the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods.
