Cautley Iron Age Settlement
Iron Age Settlement, Cautley, Sedbergh, Cumbria.
Two thousand years ago, a simple farming community grew crops and grazed livestock on the valley floor beneath Cautley Spout. Their homes and small yards would have been enclosed within a perimeter wall. There is a good 3m wide stone-edged track that these ancient farmers built leading from the settlement to the falls. The ruins of a sheepfold built by medieval farmers can also be seen over parts of the settlement.
