Newbigging is a post-medieval unenclosed settlement and palisaded enclosure located southwest of Newbigging in Angus, Scotland. The site comprises an open settlement pattern associated with a defensive timber palisade, indicating occupation during a period when such fortifications remained relevant to local settlement practices. The physical remains reflect the character of rural settlement in the post-medieval period, when palisaded enclosures continued to be constructed despite the decline of such defences in other regions. The monument is recorded under HES INSPIRE reference SM6099 as a significant archaeological record of post-medieval domestic and defensive organisation in northeast Scotland.
