Wester Denhead is an unenclosed settlement located 120 metres east of the named place in Perthshire, Scotland. The site represents a form of settlement organisation characteristic of prehistoric and early historic Scotland, where communities occupied open ground without the defensive or boundary-marking structures of later enclosed settlements. Such unenclosed settlements typically date to the Bronze Age or Iron Age periods, though occupation may have extended into later centuries. The archaeological significance of the site lies in its contribution to understanding patterns of settlement distribution and social organisation in Perthshire during the protohistoric period.
