Tathey Crags is a prehistoric unenclosed hut circle settlement located in Northumberland, England, dating to the Bronze Age. The site comprises the remains of circular stone-built domestic structures characteristic of upland settlement patterns in northern Britain during this period. These hut circles represent evidence of pastoral communities who occupied the Northumberland uplands, utilising the landscape for stock management and seasonal habitation. The unenclosed character of the settlement distinguishes it from later Iron Age enclosed settlements and reflects the settlement practices and territorial organisation of Bronze Age societies in the region.
