Hut circles, enclosures and fields north of Shorkley Hill is a Bronze Age and Iron Age settlement complex located in Yorkshire. The monument comprises scattered domestic structures in the form of hut circles, associated field systems, and enclosure banks that reflect the organisation of a prehistoric agricultural community. These earthworks demonstrate the settlement patterns and land use practices typical of upland areas during the later Bronze Age and Iron Age periods. The preservation of both structural and field elements at this location provides evidence of the transition from Bronze Age to Iron Age settlement strategies in the region.
