Romano-British farmstead, hut-circle and co-axial field system 1.3km north-west of Ferneyrigg is a complex of agricultural remains located in Northumberland. The site comprises evidence of Romano-British occupation dating to the period when Roman administration influenced settlement patterns in northern Britain, featuring both domestic structures in the form of hut circles and an organised field layout characteristic of co-axial field systems. Such field arrangements, with their parallel and intersecting boundaries, reflect the intensification of land use during the Romano-British period. The remains survive as earthwork features and represent an important example of rural settlement and land division practices in this region during the first centuries AD.
