Llechwedd Erwent Hut Circle Settlement is a prehistoric domestic site comprising an unenclosed hut circle settlement located in Meirionnydd, Wales. The settlement is situated on sloping terrain and consists of the remains of several roundhouses, which represent evidence of Iron Age or Bronze Age occupation in the region. The hut circles are identified by their characteristic circular or sub-circular ground plans, though much of the structural detail has been lost to time and agricultural activity. This site forms part of the broader pattern of upland settlement in prehistoric Wales and is protected as a scheduled monument under the Cadw designation system.
