Cnoc Ebric is a Iron Age fort located in Argyllshire, Scotland, forming part of the extensive settlement pattern of the region during the first millennium before the Common Era. The site consists of a fortified hilltop position, representative of defensive settlements characteristic of the Scottish Iron Age, when such strategic locations served communities for habitation and protection. Like many Iron Age forts in the west of Scotland, Cnoc Ebric reflects the territorial and social organisation of contemporary society, though detailed archaeological investigation of the site has been limited. The monument remains significant as evidence of Iron Age settlement patterns and land use in Argyllshire during a formative period of Scottish prehistory.
