Medieval shieling 100m west of Trout Beck is a seasonal pastoral structure located in Westmorland, England. The site represents evidence of transhumance practices in the medieval period, when shepherds would move livestock to upland pastures during summer months. The shieling survives as an earthwork feature in the landscape, reflecting the longstanding tradition of pastoral land use in the fells and uplands of northern England. Such structures are characteristic of medieval and post-medieval pastoral economies in the Lake District and surrounding regions, where grazing on high ground formed an integral part of agricultural management.
