Tathwell long barrow is a Neolithic burial monument located in Lincolnshire, situated approximately 350 metres north-north-west of the junction of Horncastle Road and New Lane. The barrow represents a characteristic example of the long mound tradition prevalent in eastern England during the Neolithic period, roughly 4000-3000 BCE. As an earthwork monument of this type, it would originally have served as a communal burial structure, though its present condition reflects the considerable effects of agricultural activity and the passage of time. The site is listed on the National Heritage List for England under reference 1013892, recognising its significance as an archaeological monument of the Neolithic era.
