Rockhurst Long Barrow.
Location-
Aldwark, Derbyshire.
O.S Grid Reference-
SK2141 5736.
Occupying a rocky spur on the eastern side of Minninglow Hill this is a probable long barrow orientated ENE-WSW and measuring 34m in length. It is situated on private land, however, the best view of the barrow can be gained from the road between Rockhurst Farm and Slipper Low Farm in Aldwark, the barrow sighted on the horizon of the spur.
Excavation records are confusing as it is not known for sure whether the finds relate to this particular barrow or that of Minning Low.
