Castell Crwn is a medieval ringwork located in Anglesey, Wales, and forms part of the designated heritage monuments recorded under Cadw reference SAM AN029. The site consists of a circular or near-circular earthwork with an outer bank and internal ditch, characteristic of ringwork fortifications that were constructed during the medieval period, particularly in Wales and the Welsh Marches. Such ringworks typically date from the eleventh to thirteenth centuries and served as defensive settlements or administrative centres for local lords. Castell Crwn's location in Anglesey reflects the strategic importance of the island during the medieval period as a centre of Welsh power and a point of military significance in relations between native Welsh rulers and English interests.
