Medieval shieling and enclosure 330 metres south west of Langlee is a pastoral settlement site dating to the medieval period located in Northumberland. The monument comprises the earthwork remains of a shieling, a temporary or seasonal structure used for herding livestock, together with associated enclosure features that reflect the agricultural economy of the upland region during this era. Such sites are characteristic of the transhumance practices undertaken across northern England, whereby herds were moved to higher pastures during the summer months. The earthwork survivals at this location represent evidence of medieval land use and settlement patterns in the Border landscape.
