The Glendoick souterrains, situated approximately 670 metres west-south-west of Glendoick in Perthshire, are an Iron Age underground structure characteristic of the settlement archaeology of eastern Scotland. Souterrains of this period, typically constructed between the 1st century BC and 1st century AD, consist of stone-lined or earth-cut passages and chambers, often accessed by sloping entrances, and are believed to have served functions including storage, refuge, or ritual purposes within the broader settlement landscape. The monument represents evidence of Iron Age domestic and communal organisation in the Tayside region, contributing to our understanding of pre-Roman settlement patterns in Scotland. The site is recorded under Historic Environment Scotland's designation SM7222.
