Buchtrig is a post-medieval settlement located in Roxburghshire, Scotland, situated approximately 800 metres south-west of the principal settlement. The site comprises an extensive field system and barrow cemetery, indicating sustained human occupation and agricultural use across multiple periods. The field system demonstrates the organised layout of post-medieval farming practices characteristic of the Scottish Borders region, whilst the barrow cemetery indicates earlier prehistoric or early medieval funerary activity at the location. The juxtaposition of these archaeological features suggests that Buchtrig occupied a significant territorial position, with the site being reused and adapted across successive periods of habitation and land management.
