The Romano-British enclosed settlement located 720 metres north-east of Catcleugh is a fortified settlement dating to the Roman period in northern Britain. The site comprises an enclosure defined by defensive earthworks, typical of the settlement patterns adopted by Romano-British communities in the upland regions of Northumberland during the first and second centuries AD. Such enclosed settlements served as nucleated farming communities, providing both domestic and defensive functions for local populations during the period of Roman occupation and military presence in the area. The monument represents an important archaeological record of Romano-British adaptation to the landscape and settlement practices in the northern frontier zone of Roman Britain.
