Hatchbank souterrains are Iron Age underground stone-built structures located in Kinross-shire, Scotland. The site comprises two separate souterrains positioned approximately 220 metres north and 280 metres north-north-west of Hatchbank. These subterranean passages, constructed from stone, represent typical examples of Iron Age settlement archaeology in central Scotland, though the precise details of their construction, dimensions, and state of preservation remain subjects of archaeological record. The function of such souterrains continues to be debated among scholars, with theories ranging from storage facilities to refuge structures, reflecting the broader interpretive challenges surrounding Iron Age underground architecture in Scotland.
