Drumcarrow Craig is a broch situated in Fife, Scotland, dating to the Iron Age, a period when such distinctive circular stone towers were constructed across northern Britain. Brochs are among the most architecturally sophisticated structures of their time, characterised by their hollow-walled circular design and substantial height, though Drumcarrow Craig survives in fragmentary form. The monument represents an important example of Iron Age settlement and defensive architecture in the region, contributing to our understanding of social organisation and building practices in prehistoric Scotland. The site is recorded under Historic Environment Scotland's INSPIRE designation SM808.
