Byrecleugh is a post-medieval farmstead situated in Berwickshire, Scotland, approximately 300 metres south-south-west of the principal settlement. The site comprises the remains of agricultural buildings and associated cultivation features dating to the post-medieval period, reflecting the farming practices and land use patterns of early modern rural Scotland. The farmstead represents a typical example of dispersed settlement characteristic of the Border region during the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries, when such small holdings formed the basis of local agricultural economy. The surviving archaeological evidence includes structural remains and field systems that demonstrate the organisation of arable and pastoral land use in this part of the Scottish Borders.
