Ardery is a site comprising recessed platforms and associated remains located to the south and southeast of Ardery in Argyllshire, Scotland. The platforms are characteristic of prehistoric settlement activity, representing domestic occupation sites of probable Neolithic or Bronze Age date. The recessed nature of the platforms suggests deliberate terracing or levelling of the ground surface to accommodate structures, a practice common in early Scottish highland communities adapting to sloping terrain. The associated remains visible at the site contribute to understanding patterns of early settlement and land use in the region, though detailed chronological and functional interpretation requires archaeological investigation.
