Small car park, only a few spaces but we had no problem parking. Lovely walk through the countryside to get to the long barrow, not completely flat, but still a relatively easy walk. Beautiful place, will definitely visit again. Lots of flora and fauna to see too

Lovely little site in a scenic location. It's a 10 min walk from the National Trust car park, which is super skinny (tree lined in both sides). Always blows mind the age of sites like this, so cool to see!

I have visited this ancient National Trust site many times and never fails to impress. It is fairly isolated which adds to its enchanting charm. A 5-10min walk from the small free car park.
It has wooden steps leading up to the remains of the burial chamber mound and back down on the other side.
There are boards which give a lot of helpful information of the sites history.

I visited here today and was really pleased; there was an excellent carpark, there were signs from the carpark to easily guide you to the Long Barrow, there was an information sign and information board as well as a bench. Everything was clean and well kept. Beautiful landscapes up to the Barrow. Note: to see the Barrow you need to be able to climb steps. For a National Trust property of this type it was great 👍 would recommend for a quick 20 to 30min visit.

A very interesting visit. There is space for 10 cars in the carpark but I don't imagine it ever draws a crowd and it was easy to find using the postcode on the National Trust web site. The walk to the barrow was about 20 minutes and well sign posted. It is strange to be somewhere that drew families dressed in animal skins to bury their dead 3000 years ago.

Deffo worth a visit alongside a Sunday Roast at the George Inn down the road. I had no idea it was here and after a medium walk from the car park after navigating winding roads you climb the short stairs to the top of the barrow and walk around the top and down the bottom & out. You can't access the barrow itself but the info display is very interesting.

Interestingell historoc place with a nice view. It us a short walk from the small parking. You can use the parking for a longer walging trip as there are several trails nearby.

Great site and nice circuit walk, maybe an hourish, up to Trosley Park from the small car park.
