Bwlch Aeddan Dyke is a linear earthwork located in Wales, designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument under Cadw reference MG100. The monument consists of a substantial bank and ditch construction that traverses the landscape, characteristic of medieval defensive or boundary earthworks. Such linear features in the Welsh medieval period typically functioned as territorial markers, defensive barriers, or administrative boundaries between lordships and commotes. The dyke represents an important example of medieval land division and fortification practices in Wales, though detailed archaeological investigation of this specific site remains limited in the published scholarly record.
