Souterrains 100m SW of Ardownie Farm Cottages is an Iron Age underground stone-built structure located in Angus, Scotland. The monument comprises a subterranean passage or chamber typical of souterrain construction, a building form characteristic of northern Britain during the Iron Age, particularly the first few centuries AD.
