Newbarns is an unenclosed settlement located approximately 520 metres north-east of Newbarns in Angus, Scotland. The site represents a Bronze Age or Iron Age settlement pattern characteristic of prehistoric settlement in eastern Scotland, where communities established habitation without the formal defensive or boundary structures associated with enclosed settlements or hillforts. The archaeological evidence from such unenclosed settlements in this region indicates domestic occupation and agricultural activity during the later prehistoric period. The site's location and form reflect patterns of dispersed rural settlement that were typical of Iron Age communities in Angus and the surrounding Tayside region.
