Harwood Shield
Harwood Shield is a farm / hamlet in Northumberland, located about 8 miles south of Hexham and 3½ miles west of Blanchland. The farmhouse here dates from the early 19th century and some of the farm buildings from the 18th century; these are listed on the National Heritage List for England. There are earthworks from an earlier farmstead and ridge and furrow cultivation, indicative of a medieval settlement here. To the south of the farm is a bridge over Devil's water and a 19th century milestone. Harwood Shield is part of Hexhamshire Civil Parish.
