The Curricks camp is a prehistoric hillfort located in Northumberland, England. The site comprises an irregular enclosure defined by substantial earthwork defences, characteristic of Iron Age fortified settlements in northern Britain. Its precise dating and cultural sequence remain subjects of archaeological investigation, though the monument is typical of defensive settlements constructed during the later prehistoric period in the region. The Curricks camp represents an important example of the fortified landscape that developed across Northumberland during the Iron Age, when such hillforts served as significant centres of settlement, defence, and territorial control.
