East Moneylaws camp is a prehistoric enclosure located in Northumberland, England. The site consists of an oval or sub-circular earthwork defined by a substantial bank and ditch, characteristic of Iron Age hillforts and defended settlements of northern Britain. Dating to the Iron Age period, the monument represents evidence of fortified settlement and territorial control during the pre-Roman occupation of Northumberland. The earthwork survives as an upstanding landscape feature that contributes to understanding patterns of Iron Age occupation and defensive architecture in the region.
