Normangill Rig is a platform settlement located east of Midlock in Lanarkshire, Scotland. The site comprises a series of levelled platforms cut into the hillside, characteristic of Iron Age or early medieval settlement patterns in the region. Such platform settlements typically functioned as domestic sites where structures were constructed upon artificially prepared ground, providing level building surfaces on sloping terrain. The archaeological evidence suggests occupation during the later prehistoric or early historic period, though detailed chronological attribution requires further investigation of finds material and stratigraphic deposits at the site.
