Anti-invasion Defences 630m E of Cae'r-tyddyn is a Post Medieval and Modern anti-tank obstacle located in Meirionnydd, Wales. These defences form part of the extensive network of anti-invasion fortifications constructed across Britain during the Second World War, particularly following the threat of German invasion in 1940 and 1941. The obstacle comprises physical barriers designed to impede the movement of enemy tanks and vehicles across the Welsh landscape. Such defensive works represent an important archaeological record of wartime emergency measures and Britain's Home Defence preparations during the critical early years of the conflict.
