Settlement site at Middlesmoor is a Bronze Age settlement located in the Nidderdale area of North Yorkshire. The site comprises the remains of prehistoric occupation, including field systems and structural features characteristic of Bronze Age communities in the Pennine uplands. The monument represents evidence of early agricultural settlement and land use in this moorland landscape during the second millennium BC. The site contributes to understanding of Bronze Age pastoral and farming practices in the northern Pennines, an area where such upland settlements are relatively well-preserved due to the subsequent lack of intensive modern development.
