Clawdd British is a medieval enclosure situated in Breconshire, Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under Cadw reference SAM BR032. The monument consists of a substantial earthwork comprising banks and ditches that enclose an area of land, characteristic of medieval settlement and land management practices in the Welsh borderlands. Dating to the medieval period, the enclosure reflects the pattern of organised territorial control and possibly pastoral or agricultural activity typical of medieval Welsh and Anglo-Norman settlement in the region. The site's preservation as an earthwork provides archaeological evidence of medieval land use and territorial organisation in Breconshire, though detailed excavation and specialist study would be required to establish more precise chronology and functional interpretation.
