Craig Cerrig-Gleisiad Prehistoric Settlement is a prehistoric domestic site located in Breconshire, Wales, consisting of an unenclosed hut circle dating to the Bronze Age. The site represents evidence of early settlement patterns in the upland regions of South Wales, where such scattered domestic structures suggest pastoral or seasonally occupied communities. The hut circle, identified as a circular or sub-circular earthwork depression, is characteristic of Bronze Age domestic architecture in Britain. The monument is scheduled as an ancient monument under the Welsh heritage protection system, reflecting its archaeological importance for understanding prehistoric settlement and land use in the Brecon Beacons region.
