Ruigh Chonnuill is a post-medieval farmstead located in Perthshire, Scotland, representing the agricultural settlement patterns of the early modern period in the Scottish Highlands. The site comprises the remains of farm buildings and associated structures characteristic of Highland pastoral economy during the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries. The physical evidence suggests a settlement organised around subsistence farming and pastoral herding, with building traces reflecting the modest construction methods typical of rural Highland communities of this era. The farmstead contributes to the archaeological record of post-medieval land use and settlement organisation in Perthshire, illustrating the continuity and adaptation of farming practices in upland regions during the transition from medieval to early modern Scotland.
