Souterrains, 145m WNW and 115m WSW of Burnside Cottage is a pair of Iron Age underground stone-built structures located in Perthshire, Scotland. These souterrains, or earth houses, are characteristic of settlement sites in eastern Scotland and date to the later Iron Age, likely between the first century BC and the early centuries AD. The structures would have functioned as storage facilities or refuge spaces associated with nearby surface settlement, their subterranean construction providing protection and stable conditions for food preservation. The sites are recorded as scheduled monuments under Historic Environment Scotland designation SM6717.
