Stone hut circles and linear boundary, 750m south-east of Low Cowden is a prehistoric settlement site in Northumberland comprising the remains of multiple stone-built domestic structures arranged with associated field systems. The hut circles represent evidence of Iron Age or Bronze Age occupation, with their stone construction and linear boundary features indicating a managed landscape utilised for both habitation and pastoral or agricultural activity. The site demonstrates the characteristic settlement patterns of upland communities during the later prehistoric period, with the boundary features suggesting organised land division across this moorland terrain. The survival of these stone foundations provides archaeological evidence for domestic life and land use practices in northern Britain during the later prehistoric era.
