Two Roman period native settlements and associated field system on Coldberry Hill is a scheduled ancient monument comprising evidence of Iron Age and Romano-British occupation located in Northumberland. The site preserves the remains of two distinct settlement complexes positioned on the hillside, with associated field divisions that reflect the agricultural organization of the native population during the Roman period. The settlements demonstrate the continuation of indigenous settlement patterns and land-use practices during the Romano-British era, indicating sustained occupation and adaptation to the Roman presence in northern Britain.
