Halidon Hill settlement is a prehistoric enclosed settlement located in Northumberland, England. The site comprises the remains of an Iron Age defensive structure, characterised by its enclosing earthwork which would have served both protective and territorial functions typical of settlements from this period. The monument represents an important example of Iron Age settlement patterns in north-eastern England, demonstrating how communities organised themselves within fortified enclosures during the centuries immediately preceding the Roman conquest of Britain.
