West Kennet Long Barrow
West Kennet Long Barrow is the most impressive long barrow I’ve ever visited. The barrow was constructed in around 3650BC. At least 46 individuals were interred here (both cremations and inhumations), they were interred with grave goods including pottery and beads. I cannot recommend visiting this site enough, this is a truly inspiring monument set within the Avebury world heritage landscape. -RoxyB.
Who put them stupid metal fences up? Nah, ruined it for me. -TommyC.
Cost: Free
Opening hours: Any time during reasonable daylight hours
Side note: There is no path to this monument, you must hike up a hill to reach the long barrow. The hill gets very muddy and slippery, hiking boots or wellies are an absolute must!
