Minninglow, Neolithic burial site in Peak District, England
The Minninglow site contains a chambered tomb and two bowl barrows positioned at an elevation of 372 meters in the Derbyshire countryside.
Archaeological excavations conducted by Thomas Bateman in 1843 and 1851 revealed multiple chambers within the oval cairn measuring 45 by 38 meters.
The limestone chambers and burial structures demonstrate the funeral practices of prehistoric communities during the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods.
Visitors can reach the site from a designated car park near the High Peak Trail, following marked pathways that ensure protection of archaeological features.
The chambered tomb at this location stands as the largest example in Derbyshire, with two complete chambers and three partial chambers within its structure.
