Hethpool stone circles is a Bronze Age monument located in the Cheviot Hills of Northumberland, consisting of a pair of stone circles situated in upland terrain. The circles are characterised by their modest scale and the use of local stone, typical of ritual monuments constructed during the second millennium BCE. The site represents evidence of ceremonial or burial practices among Bronze Age communities in the northern Pennines region, though the precise function of the paired arrangement remains uncertain. The monument survives as an important archaeological record of prehistoric activity in this remote upland landscape.
