Drumshade enclosure, located 400 metres east of Drumshade in Angus, Scotland, is a post-medieval enclosure dating to the early modern period. The site comprises a rectilinear earthwork boundary typical of agricultural reorganisation undertaken across the Scottish lowlands during the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries. Such enclosures represent the consolidation and formalisation of land management practices as landholders moved away from open-field systems towards more controlled pastoral and arable regimes. The monument survives as an archaeological feature within the wider landscape transformation of early modern Angus.
