Medieval village at Dotland
This rather unprepossessing field of humps and hollows marks this site of what was in Mediaeval times a substantial village http://www.durham-pa.gov.uk/durhamcc/K2P.nsf/K2PDetail?readform&PRN=N8336. The hills on the skyline lie to the north of the Tyne valley.

Dotland Shrunken Medieval Village
There has been a settlement at Dotland since at least the 13th century when it was recorded as a grange in 1287. At this time it belonged to the Priory of Hexham. In the 14th century it had become a tenanted farm and in 1379 a number of people are recorded living there. The population of the village seems to have fallen quite drastically by this time but over the next 400 years it grew again until there was a substantial settlement here by 1769. However, today there are only two farms and a few cottages. The earlier settlement has left its mark in the clear earthworks marking former house and garden plots. There are also remains of the medieval field system with ridge and furrow earthworks nearby.
