Raesmill Burn is an unenclosed settlement located approximately 300 metres east-south-east of Anniston Mill in Angus, Scotland. The site represents a form of prehistoric or proto-historic settlement typical of the northern British mainland, where domestic occupation occurred without the defensive or demarcative enclosures characteristic of later Iron Age settlements. The archaeological evidence from such unenclosed settlements in this region indicates occupation spanning the Bronze Age into the Iron Age, though the precise dating of this particular site requires further archaeological investigation. Its location in the Angus landscape reflects the settlement patterns of early agricultural communities in eastern Scotland, occupying positions near water sources and arable ground.
