Hut Circles East of Moel Geifr is a prehistoric domestic settlement located in Meirionnydd, Wales, consisting of a cluster of hut circles positioned on the eastern slopes of the mountain. The settlement is designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument (Cadw SAM ME181) and represents evidence of Bronze Age or Iron Age occupation in the upland regions of Snowdonia. The individual hut circles are marked by stone-built foundations and are characteristic of the domestic structures typical of later prehistoric Wales, where circular or oval stone-founded dwellings served as the primary form of settlement. The site contributes to understanding the patterns of prehistoric land use and habitation in the mountainous terrain of northwest Wales during the second and first millennia before the Common Era.
