Ramornie Mains roundhouse is an Iron Age settlement site located approximately 650 metres east-north-east of Ramornie Mains in Fife, Scotland. The structure represents a form of domestic architecture characteristic of the later prehistoric period in Scotland, with roundhouses serving as the principal dwelling type for communities across much of the Iron Age. The site's specific archaeological significance lies in its contribution to understanding settlement patterns and domestic life in the Fife region during this pre-Roman period. Like many roundhouses of this era, the monument would have provided evidence of construction techniques, spatial organisation, and the daily life of its Iron Age inhabitants, though its current condition and state of preservation would determine what archaeological information remains available for study.
