Fairy Toot

The Fairy Toot is an extensive oval barrow in the civil parish of Nempnett Thrubwell, Somerset, England (grid reference ST520618). It is an example of the Severn-Cotswold tomb type which consist of precisely-built, long trapezoid earth mounds covering a burial chamber. Because of this they are a type of chambered long barrow. At the time it was conjectured to be a work of the Druids, but its origins are far older and probably date from the Neolithic period. The site was visited in the past as it was known as a place for curing warts.
