The unenclosed hut circle settlement and associated field system located 880 metres north of Heddon Hill in Northumberland is a prehistoric monument, likely dating to the Bronze Age or Iron Age periods. The site comprises several circular or sub-circular structures characteristic of domestic settlement from these periods, positioned within a broader landscape organised by linear field boundaries. The archaeological remains provide evidence of pastoral and possibly arable subsistence practices within upland or marginal terrain during the later prehistory of northern Britain. The settlement represents a significant example of the dispersed settlement patterns that characterised rural communities in this region prior to the Roman period.
