Settlement 500 yards south-east of Cardew Hill is a prehistoric or early historic enclosed settlement located in Cumberland. The site comprises an enclosure defined by earthwork boundaries, characteristic of settlement patterns found across northern England during the Iron Age and Romano-British periods. Such enclosed settlements served as domestic and possibly defensive compounds, typically housing one or more family groups with associated structures for habitation and stock management. The precise dating and cultural attribution of this particular settlement remain matters for archaeological investigation, though its survival as an upstanding earthwork makes it significant for understanding the distribution and morphology of ancient settlement in the region.
