Gors y Brithdir Enclosed Hut Group and Ancient Fields is a prehistoric domestic settlement located in Conwy, Wales, comprising a cluster of hut circles and associated field systems. The site consists of several circular or oval stone-founded structures typical of Iron Age or late Bronze Age settlement patterns in Wales, arranged within an enclosed landscape that reflects the agricultural practices of its period. The enclosing banks and the layout of the hut circles indicate a managed domestic and pastoral economy, with the field boundaries representing the organised use of the surrounding land for both habitation and stock management. This settlement form is characteristic of upland Welsh prehistoric communities and contributes to understanding of regional Iron Age social organisation and land use.
