Clennell Street palisaded settlement is a prehistoric fortified settlement located in the Cheviot Hills of Northumberland. The site is characterised by the remains of a substantial timber palisade that enclosed a settlement area, dating to the Iron Age period. The monument's positioning within the upland landscape reflects the strategic and pastoral economy of Iron Age communities in northern Britain. The settlement represents an important example of defensive settlement architecture from this period and contributes to understanding of Iron Age settlement patterns and land use in the Cheviot region.
