Ancient Village or Settlement in Tyne and Wear
Tyne and Wear HER 639
Sub-rectangular enclosure, with surrounding ditch and possible internal hut circle.
The site would have controlled the important ford over the River Derwent, and the resources of the river, marshes and the large area of woodland now called Chopwell Wood.
This site has become increasing marshy in recent years, and the crop-marks are less clear.
