Multivallate hillfort, 400m west of Harehaugh, is a prehistoric fortified settlement located in Northumberland. The monument is characterised by multiple defensive earthwork banks and ditches, a constructional approach that defines the multivallate class of Iron Age hillforts. The site dates to the Iron Age period, during which such fortifications served as centres of settlement, refuge, and territorial control in northern Britain. The survival of its earthwork defences provides archaeological evidence of the sophisticated defensive strategies employed by Iron Age communities in the region.
