Gib Hill
Gib Hill is a large burial mound in the Peak District, Derbyshire, England. It is thought to be a Neolithic oval barrow with an Early Bronze Age round barrow superimposed at one end. It is located some 300 metres south-west of Arbor Low henge. ==Excavations== Three exploratory excavations were conducted in the 19th century: the first by the owner, Mr Thornhill in 1812, a second by William Bateman and S. Mitchell in 1824, and a third by Thomas Bateman in 1848.〔(GIB HILL ), Pastscape, retrieved 27 September 2012〕 The 1848 excavations uncovered a cist of early Bronze Age date, containing a cremation and food vessel.〔 The complex structure of the barrow suggests that it consists of a Neolithic oval barrow with an Early Bronze Age round barrow superimposed at one end.〔(History and Research: Arbor Low Henge and Stone Circle and Gib Hill Barrow ), English Heritage, retrieved 27 September 2012〕 This configuration can be seen clearly by looking up at the barrow from the north.〔
