Gamallt Hut Circle Settlement is a prehistoric domestic settlement located in Meirionnydd, Wales, comprising a cluster of hut circles that represent Bronze Age or Iron Age occupation of the upland landscape. The site consists of multiple circular stone-founded structures typical of later prehistoric settlement patterns in Wales, with evidence of sustained habitation during the later prehistoric period. The hut circles exhibit the characteristic dry-stone construction methods employed in upland settlements of this era, reflecting adaptation to the Welsh hill environment. As a scheduled ancient monument under Cadw protection, the settlement provides important archaeological evidence for understanding prehistoric land use, domestic organisation, and settlement distribution in the Snowdonian region.
