Nether Arniefoul is an unenclosed settlement located approximately 500 metres north-east of the main settlement in Angus, Scotland. The site represents a form of prehistoric or early historic occupation characterised by the absence of defensive or boundary structures, which is typical of many settlements from the Bronze Age through to the early medieval period in Scotland. The physical remains at the site would have comprised domestic structures and associated activity areas distributed across the landscape without formal enclosure. Such unenclosed settlements are significant for understanding settlement patterns and land use in northern Britain during periods when communities did not require or employ fortified boundaries for their habitation sites.
