Ceunant Egryn Enclosed Settlement is a prehistoric enclosed hut circle settlement located in Meirionnydd, Wales. The site consists of the remains of a domestic enclosure dating to the Iron Age or earlier prehistoric periods, comprising a roughly circular or oval earthwork with associated hut circles within its bounds. The settlement demonstrates the pattern of defended or stock-containing domestic occupation characteristic of upland Welsh prehistory, with the enclosing bank serving both protective and pastoral functions. The monument is protected under Cadw's Scheduled Ancient Monument designation and contributes to understanding of settlement patterns and land use in the upland regions of northwest Wales during the Iron Age.
