Beanley Moor Enclosed Settlement is a Romano-British archaeological complex situated on upland terrain in Northumberland. The site comprises an enclosed settlement with associated hut-circles, representing occupation during the Roman period when native British communities continued to inhabit the landscape beyond direct military control. The earthwork remains are visible as low banks and platforms marking residential structures, evidence of pastoral and agricultural settlement practices adapted to moorland conditions. Such enclosed settlements with hut-circles are characteristic of Romano-British rural settlement patterns in northern England, reflecting the continuation of Iron Age traditions of domestic and pastoral organisation into the Roman period.
