The Romano-British enclosed hut circle settlement 350m WNW of Maisongill is a residential settlement of the Romano-British period located in Westmorland. The site comprises hut circles enclosed within a defensive or demarcating boundary, representing a form of domestic occupation that persisted in northern Britain during the Roman era. Such settlements demonstrate the continuation of indigenous settlement patterns and building traditions in this upland region, rather than wholesale adoption of Romano-British urban or villa-based settlement models. The archaeological character of the site, visible as earthworks, provides evidence for the nature of Romano-British rural settlement in the northern Pennine landscape.
