Gilrivie is an unenclosed settlement located west-southwest of Gilrivie in Angus, Scotland, dating to the prehistoric period. The site comprises dispersed structures characteristic of early agricultural communities that occupied the region, with occupation patterns reflecting the settlement strategies of Bronze Age or Iron Age populations. Unenclosed settlements of this type represent an important phase in Scottish prehistory, preceding the more formally defined hillforts and fortified settlements of later periods. The archaeological evidence from such sites contributes to understanding land use, social organization, and subsistence practices in Angus during the protohistoric era.
