Gadlys is a medieval domestic moated site located in Wales and designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument under Cadw reference GM081. The site comprises a moated enclosure characteristic of medieval settlement patterns in Wales, where such features typically served defensive and status-signifying functions for local landholding families during the medieval period. The moat structure itself represents investment in domestic architecture and land management practices common among Welsh gentry and English settler communities from the twelfth century onwards. As a scheduled monument, Gadlys preserves evidence of medieval domestic occupation and settlement organisation within the Welsh landscape.
