Marygold Plantation is a complex of Iron Age forts located in Berwickshire, Scotland, comprising two separate defensive structures positioned approximately 845 metres west and 730 metres northwest of Marygold settlement. The forts represent typical Iron Age hillforts of the Scottish Borders region, a landscape rich in such fortified settlements that served both defensive and administrative functions during the later prehistoric period. These monuments are recorded in the Historic Environment Record under designation HES INSPIRE SM375. The precise architectural details and chronological refinement of these two forts would require consultation of specialised archaeological survey records, as Iron Age fortifications in this region often show variable construction methods and phasing across their occupation periods.
