Cairnshee is a post-medieval field system and farmstead located approximately 700 metres west-south-west of the named settlement in Kincardineshire, Scotland. The site comprises the remains of agricultural land divisions and associated farm buildings dating to the post-medieval period, representing the organisation of rural settlement and cultivation practices in the region during this era. The field system demonstrates the characteristic layout of early modern Scottish farming, with enclosures arranged to facilitate pastoral and arable agriculture on the Kincardineshire landscape. The farmstead elements indicate the domestic and agricultural focus of the settlement, typical of the dispersed farming communities that characterised rural Scotland from the sixteenth century onwards.
