Cwrt y Person Moated Site is a medieval domestic moated settlement located in Wales, designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument under the Cadw reference MG166. The site comprises the earthwork remains of a moat forming an approximately rectangular enclosure, characteristic of high-status residential sites of the medieval period. Such moated sites were typically occupied during the twelfth to sixteenth centuries and served as the defended residences of minor nobility or wealthy landowners. The physical earthworks at Cwrt y Person represent the vestiges of domestic occupation and social stratification in medieval Welsh society, though detailed archaeological investigation of the site remains limited.
