A fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Meldrum, likely dating to the early medieval period, is a circular earthwork with a well-preserved bank incorporated into a field boundary. Local tradition associates such sites with fairy folklore, reflecting their perceived otherworldly or sacred significance in Scottish rural belief.
