De Dunmore Pineapple , ook wel de The Pineapple genoemd, is een achttiende-eeuwse folly in de vorm van een ananas, gelegen ongeveer één kilometer ten noordwesten van Airth in de Schotse regio Falkirk.

In 1761 bouwde John Murray, vierde graaf van Dunmore The Pineapple op het grondgebied van Dunmore House. Het is niet bekend waarom hij de Pineapple bouwde, wellicht als een extravagant zomerhuis of als symbool van zijn terugkomst uit de Verenigde Staten waar ananassen een teken van welkom waren. Vermoedelijk was de architect Sir William Chambers verantwoordelijk voor het ontwerp.
