Moneylaws Castle Hill camp is a prehistoric or early medieval fortified settlement located in Northumberland. The site consists of an earthwork enclosure defined by defensive banks and ditches, characteristic of Iron Age or Romano-British period hillfort construction, though its exact chronology remains subject to archaeological interpretation. The camp occupies a strategically elevated position typical of settlement sites from this region during antiquity. Its survival as an upstanding earthwork makes it a significant example of Northumbrian defensive archaeology, preserving evidence of early settlement patterns in the northern English landscape.
