stretchyboy visited on 19th Jun 2020 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 5 Access: 4 I'm doing an adventure at the moment as part of my healing of a badly broken leg, heading to all the access 5 sites in my area. It is about 500m up to the barrow on a lovely path, so this is Access 4.

Fine Bronze Age bowl barrow on the very top of Longstone Moor. At 400m there are fine views in all directions including to Minning Low, Five Wells and Arbor Low. There are a number of other earthworks adjacent to the barrow.
Park at lay-by on the B6465 from which there is a footpath to the barrow.
