Kilmory Lodge Fort is an Iron Age fortified settlement located on the island of Rum in Argyllshire, Scotland. The site comprises a substantial defensive structure typical of Iron Age occupation in the Scottish Hebrides, positioned strategically on elevated terrain. Though detailed archaeological investigation of this particular site remains limited in the published scholarly record, its designation as an Iron Age fort indicates a period of occupation during the pre-Roman Iron Age, when such fortifications served defensive and administrative functions within local communities. The monument's survival on the relatively remote island landscape provides evidence of the extent of Iron Age settlement across the Hebridean archipelago.
