Minninglow is a 1,220-foot (372 m) hill in the White Peak region of the Peak District. It is most notable for the impressive chambered Neolithic burial tomb that adorns the summit.
The site comprises an oval cairn measuring 148 by 125 feet (45 by 38 m) and is surrounded by a clump of trees. From the air in winter, it almost looks like a festive wreath.
Within the tomb are two complete limestone chambers and at least three others that are incomplete.
