Gwern Wynodl Hafod is a Medieval domestic platform house located in Denbighshire, Wales, designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument under reference DE247. The site comprises a levelled platform that represents the footprint of a medieval dwelling, typical of the dispersed settlement pattern found across upland Wales during the medieval period. Such platform houses, often associated with pastoral farming communities, are characterised by their artificially flattened building plots cut into sloping terrain. The monument reflects the medieval occupation and land use of the Welsh uplands, where seasonal or permanent habitation supported by pastoral agriculture formed the basis of local settlement and economy.
