Ancient Village or Settlement in Tyne and Wear
Tyne and Wear HER 174, Scheduled Monument. Photo in Miket, page 121.
Late Iron Age or Romano-British settlement.
A rectilinear double-ditched enclosure visible on aerial photographs, 75 m square with the inner ditch 10 metres inside this. There are circular features, possibly hut circles or perhaps modern traces of coal mining. A single entrance is visible in the crop mark. Further settlement remains including hut circles, lie outside the enclosure. The site has been investigated by geophysical survey and anomalies interpreted as the remains of two hut circles lie in close proximity to the enclosure. The first, immediately to the north of the northern side of the enclosure, measures 16 metres in diameter. The second, 30 m to the south east of the south-eastern corner of the enclosure, measures 14 m in diameter.
