Edin's Hall is a Iron Age broch situated in Berwickshire, Scottish Borders, representing a rare example of broch architecture in south-eastern Scotland. The monument comprises a substantial circular stone-built tower with outer defensive elements, dating to the Iron Age period, and is accompanied by associated settlement remains and defensive earthworks that suggest occupation extending beyond the primary broch structure. The site demonstrates the complex settlement patterns of Iron Age communities in this region, where broch towers functioned as high-status residential and defensive centres. The surviving remains, protected as a scheduled monument, provide significant archaeological evidence for understanding Iron Age settlement hierarchies and architectural practices in the Scottish borders zone.
