Kelphope is a prehistoric settlement located approximately 1200 metres north of Kelphope in Berwickshire, Scottish Borders. The site comprises the remains of several structures typical of Iron Age occupation, including evidence of roundhouses and associated settlement features arranged across the landscape. The settlement's position on upland terrain reflects the pastoral land-use patterns characteristic of later prehistoric communities in the Borders region. While the exact chronology remains subject to archaeological refinement, the site represents an important example of the distributed settlement pattern that characterised Iron Age Berwickshire before the Roman and subsequent medieval periods transformed the region's human geography.
