The defended settlement located 400 metres west of Titlington Mount is an Iron Age fortified enclosure in Northumberland. The site comprises a bivallate hillfort or promontory fort with substantial earthwork defences consisting of two parallel banks and ditches that enclose an irregular area of settlement. Dating to the Iron Age period, the monument represents a typical example of the defended settlements that were established across northern Britain during the later prehistoric period. The earthwork remains survive as visible topographical features in the landscape, though the interior has been subject to agricultural use over subsequent centuries.
