The monument on the east slopes of Brands Hill south-east of Carey Burn Bridge is a complex of Romano-British and medieval pastoral settlement remains. The site comprises evidence of native occupation during the Roman period and later medieval shieling activity associated with upland pastoral transhumance. The physical remains include both structural features and artefactual material dating to these distinct periods of use, reflecting the long history of settlement and resource exploitation in this Northumberland landscape. The site's location on the eastern slope reflects the topographical preferences of both Roman period communities and later medieval pastoralists exploiting the upland terrain.
