Beili-Bedw Earthworks is a medieval deserted settlement located in Radnorshire, Wales, comprising the archaeological remains of domestic occupation typical of the later medieval period. The site is characterized by earthwork features including house platforms, enclosures, and associated field systems that reflect the layout and land use of a rural Welsh settlement. The structures and their arrangement indicate a settlement pattern consistent with the 13th to 16th centuries, representing the type of dispersed domestic occupation found throughout the Welsh uplands during this period. The site's abandonment and subsequent preservation as earthworks provides evidence for understanding medieval settlement patterns and rural domestic life in the Welsh marches region.
