Tughall is a deserted medieval village and chapel site located in Northumberland, England. The settlement represents a typical example of medieval rural habitation in the North East, with earthwork remains that indicate the former layout of domestic structures and field systems characteristic of the medieval period. The chapel, which formed part of the spiritual centre of the community, survives as part of the archaeological landscape. The site's desertion reflects the broader patterns of settlement change that affected many northern English villages, particularly during the later medieval period when economic and social pressures led to the abandonment of smaller settlements.
