Stanhope is a post-medieval platform settlement, field system and farmstead located south of Taberon Law in Peeblesshire, Scotland. The site comprises the physical remains of an upland farming settlement dating from the post-medieval period, evidenced by the presence of building platforms, associated field boundaries, and agricultural infrastructure characteristic of early modern rural occupation. The monument represents the dispersed settlement pattern and agricultural organisation typical of the Borders region during this era. The site's location in the upland landscape of Peeblesshire reflects the historical exploitation of marginal agricultural land and the pastoral economy that sustained rural communities in the Scottish Borders during the early modern period.
