Barrows weren't always simple mounds of earth. Various cultures, including Scythians and Bronze Age Britons, covered the mounds with a layer of clay, which in some cases could have been shining white.
One can then imagine the monuments were far more impressive and conspicuous than they now appear.

Genos Historia has shown that there were genes present in WHG that likely made them lighter skinned than previously thought

New Dutch reconstruction of a WHG woman from Wallonia. I hate it but it’s better than the Cheddar man one

This is what late Roman soldiers in Britain looked like - trousers and tunics from barbarian influence on the late Romans. The crested helmet famous for Vendel era Swedish and early Anglo-Saxon examples is based on Late Roman ridge helmets - the only real difference being that the Germanic people added their zoomorphic knotwork designs to the mix. What is surprising is how similar this soldier looks to the Anglo-Saxon invaders who were yet to arrive. Their arrival was perhaps not as much of a culture shock as people sometimes make out...

Details of the bird’s head sword scabbard found in Nydam bog, Denmark. Dating to the 4th century. The ancestors of the English were in this region at the time. This is before detailed zoomorphic interlace took off
More scabbard designs from Nydam bog - see the horses and serpents are the main animals. 3rd/4th century
