Mid Knock is an unenclosed settlement located approximately 600 metres south-west of a reference point in Dumfriesshire, Scotland. The site comprises the archaeological remains of a prehistoric or early historic settlement, characterised by the absence of defensive fortifications or boundary earthworks typical of more formalised settlement patterns. Such unenclosed settlements are common across Scotland and represent dispersed domestic occupation, potentially spanning several centuries of occupation and use. The site's archaeological significance lies in its contribution to understanding settlement patterns and land use practices in the south-western Scottish lowlands during the pre-Roman Iron Age or early medieval periods.
