Barry enclosure, 350m south of Ravensby House, is a post-medieval enclosure located in Angus, Scotland. The monument lies on bedrock of the Arbuttnott-Garvock Group, a Pragian-age formation of sandstone interspersed with conglomerate, siltstone and mudstone. This underlying geology shapes the local landscape and would have influenced both settlement and land use in this part of Angus during the post-medieval period.
The enclosure represents a phase of agricultural or pastoral management typical of early modern rural Scotland. Its position 350 metres south of Ravensby House places it within the wider estate landscape, where such enclosed areas often denote fields, stock management zones or defined working land associated with a principal residence.
The site is protected by Historic Environment Scotland under reference SM6569, recognising its significance as evidence of post-medieval rural organisation and land division in the region.
