Cilan-Uchaf Burial Chamber is a Neolithic chambered tomb located in Conwy, Wales, and designated as a scheduled ancient monument under Cadw reference CN104. The site belongs to the tradition of megalithic collective burial monuments characteristic of the Neolithic period in Wales, constructed to serve as a focal point for ritual and funerary practices within prehistoric communities. The monument's physical structure reflects the typical design of such chambered tombs, with stone-built internal chambers covered by earthen or stone mounds, though the specific surviving elements of the site reflect the impacts of time and later disturbance.
