Crugyn Bank Dyke is a linear earthwork located in Wales and designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument under Cadw reference MG062. The dyke represents an Early Medieval defensive or territorial boundary work, typical of structures constructed during the period following the Roman withdrawal from Britain. Physical evidence suggests the monument comprises an earthen bank, characteristic of boundary demarcation systems employed during the early medieval period across Wales and the Marches. Such linear earthworks served both practical functions in land division and assertion of territorial control during a period of significant political fragmentation and reorganisation in early medieval Wales.
