Coed y Dinas Round Barrow is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under Cadw reference MG281. The barrow represents a significant example of prehistoric burial practice, constructed as a earthen mound to contain and mark the interment of one or more individuals during the later prehistoric period. Its survival within a wooded setting reflects the landscape history of the region and provides archaeological evidence for mortuary ritual and social organisation among Wales's early farming or metal-working communities.
