Wallstale Dun is an Iron Age fortified settlement located in Stirlingshire, Scotland. The site comprises a substantial stone-built dun, a form of defensive domestic structure characteristic of Iron Age communities in Scotland, typically dating to the period between the 1st millennium BC and the early centuries AD. Like other duns of its type, Wallstale would have served as a stronghold for a local elite family or community, combining residential and defensive functions within its stone ramparts.
