Craigmarloch Wood Fort is a Iron Age fortified settlement located in Renfrewshire, South West Scotland. The site comprises a univallate or possibly bivallate hillfort with earthwork defences, typical of the Iron Age period in Scotland, though precise dating evidence remains limited in the published record. Such forts served as defended settlements and power centres during the Iron Age, likely housing elite populations and providing strategic advantage over surrounding territory. The monument lies within a landscape of other Iron Age fortifications characteristic of the region during the first millennium BC.
