The Long Barrow at All Cannings, Wiltshire
Visited July 2021
A modern long barrow for the interment of cremated remains, built in 2014 in the style of a Neolithic long barrow. Of course, as there are contemporary remains deposited within the barrow it is not open to visitors, but you can park at the end of a farm track and walk up to, over and around the barrow which sits on the edge of a field in the Wiltshire countryside. A visit won't take very long at all, but as a reminder of how ancient practices can inform our contemporary life, and burial monuments become part of the living landscape, it's well worth stopping to see it.
