Buckton Moor North camp is a prehistoric hillfort located in Northumberland, England. The monument comprises an area of elevated ground enclosed by defensive earthworks consisting of banks and ditches, typical of Iron Age settlement patterns in northern Britain. The site dates to the Iron Age period, representing a form of fortified settlement common to this region during the later prehistory of England. Such camps served both defensive and administrative functions within Iron Age communities, though the specific chronology and intensity of occupation at Buckton Moor North requires assessment against regional archaeological evidence.
