Easter Dawyck is a Iron Age fort and settlement located in Peeblesshire, in the Scottish Borders region. The site comprises defensive earthworks characteristic of Iron Age settlement in the Tweed Valley, positioned to command the landscape some 730 metres south-east of Dawyck itself. Such fortified settlements were typical of the later Iron Age period in south-central Scotland, when communities established defended positions for habitation and stock management. The monument survives as earthwork remains and represents a significant example of Iron Age occupation in this strategically important part of the Border country.
