Harperdean Enclosure, located 300 metres east of Harperdean in East Lothian, is a post-medieval enclosure dating from the early modern period. The monument comprises an earthwork boundary feature characteristic of agricultural land division and management practices during the post-medieval era. Such enclosures in the region typically reflect the gradual process of field rationalisation and formalisation of land tenure that occurred across lowland Scotland from the sixteenth century onwards. The site's survival as an upstanding earthwork indicates its historical importance for understanding the development of the rural landscape and farming practices in East Lothian during this transformative period.
