Plean Farm Palisaded Enclosure is a Post-Medieval fortified site located in Stirlingshire, Scotland, approximately 150 metres north-east of Plean Farm itself. The enclosure is defined by a substantial palisade, a defensive feature constructed from wooden posts set closely together, characteristic of early modern fortification practices in Scotland. Dating to the Post-Medieval period, the site reflects the security concerns and settlement patterns of rural Stirlingshire during this era, when such reinforced enclosures served both defensive and territorial functions for landowners of modest means. The palisaded enclosure survives as an important archaeological record of domestic fortification practices in central Scotland during the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries.
