Three Romano-British enclosed settlements near Nether Houses

4/2/2026

0 Comments

 
Nether Houses, Rochester, Northumberland.

Location: NY 823 969

K2P: N8099
K2P: N8100
K2P: N8101

One to the NW close to the sheep-shelter (bield). Well preserved settlement to its SE and the third hidden by trees (on DSM) in a fairly recent forestry plantation.

There are faint impressions of a field system close to the settlements and also a few unenclosed hut circles which may relate to an earlier or contemporary period.
