Prehistoric enclosed hut circle settlement NNE of Appleby Slack is a Bronze Age or Iron Age archaeological complex located in Lancashire. The site comprises an enclosed settlement with associated hut circles, domestic structures characteristic of later prehistoric communities, alongside a bowl barrow which served as a burial monument. The settlement's enclosure and hut circles represent evidence of domestic occupation and social organisation during the Bronze Age or Iron Age period, whilst the bowl barrow indicates funerary practice and ritual activity contemporaneous with or predating the settlement.
