I was told something by a knowledgable local about Beckhampton Long Barrow, but can't remember if it was that it is the oldest or the biggest. The statistical likelyhood is that the biggest is in Wiltshire as it contains 148 of the 240 known examples (apparently).

I wouldn't mind knowing a useless fact like this. West Kennett is 85m long I think.

Beckhampton is the oldest and West kennet is the longest.
The Fairys Toote at Nempnett Thrubwell used to be the longest with 26 side chambers but it has been totaly destroyed now.
