Aberedw Hill Deserted Rural Settlement is a Post Medieval domestic longhouse located in Radnorshire, Wales, situated within the upland pastoral landscape characteristic of the region during the early modern period. The settlement represents typical longhouse construction of its era, a building form that accommodated both human habitation and livestock shelter under a single roof, reflecting the mixed agricultural economy of rural Welsh communities. The site's abandonment and subsequent survival as earthwork remains provide archaeological evidence of the settlement patterns and domestic arrangements of Post Medieval upland communities in mid Wales. The monument is recorded under the Cadw Scheduled Ancient Monument register as RD166, confirming its historical and archaeological significance to the understanding of rural settlement evolution in the region.
