Hut Circle Settlement at Gwern Engan is a prehistoric domestic settlement located in Conwy, Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under reference CN215. The site comprises multiple hut circles, the characteristic remains of Iron Age roundhouses that formed the physical basis of settlement organisation during this period. The settlement demonstrates the pattern of domestic occupation typical of prehistoric upland communities in North Wales, with the hut circles representing the preserved foundations or floor levels where circular structures once stood. Such settlements provide important evidence for understanding the subsistence patterns, social organisation, and land use practices of Iron Age communities in the Welsh uplands.
