Settlement enclosures, 800 metres north west of Farhill, is a prehistoric monument located in Cumberland comprising a complex of earthwork enclosures associated with ancient settlement activity. The site consists of linear and curvilinear earthwork features that define enclosed spaces, typical of later prehistoric settlement patterns in northern England. Such enclosures commonly date to the Bronze Age or Iron Age, representing the organisation of domestic and pastoral space within established communities. The earthworks survive as slight but discernible ground features that contribute to understanding prehistoric settlement distribution and land use in the upland regions of northwest England.
