Linbrig is a deserted medieval village located in Northumberland, approximately 540 metres north of Linbriggs. The settlement represents a typical example of the nucleated villages that characterised the medieval landscape of the English North, and its abandonment reflects the significant demographic and economic upheavals that affected rural Northumberland from the later medieval period onwards. The earthworks visible at the site include the remains of house platforms and associated field systems that indicate the village's former organisation and extent. The monument is designated as a site of archaeological importance, preserving evidence of medieval settlement patterns and rural life in this region.
