Enclosure 600 yards northeast of Burradon House is an Iron Age earthwork located in Northumberland. The monument comprises a univallate enclosure, defined by a single bank and ditch system characteristic of prehistoric defensive or settlement structures from the Iron Age period. The site is situated within the wider landscape of similar fortified enclosures found across northern England, which served as focal points for Iron Age communities engaged in agriculture and stock management. The earthwork remains visible as an upstanding archaeological feature, though its precise functional interpretation as a fort, settlement, or stock enclosure awaits further detailed investigation.
