Loddan is a palisaded settlement located 350 metres northwest of the summit in Roxburghshire, Scotland. The site represents a form of defended domestic occupation characteristic of the Iron Age period in southern Scotland. Its construction involved the erection of substantial timber palisades, which would have served both defensive and demarcatory functions around the settlement area. Such palisaded enclosures are indicative of the social hierarchies and territorial concerns of Iron Age communities in the region.
