Llidiart-Garw Platform House and Paddock is a medieval domestic platform house located in Meirionnydd, Wales. The site comprises a raised platform, typical of Welsh upland settlement patterns, which would have supported a timber or stone structure during the medieval period. Such platform houses represent an important class of evidence for understanding rural Welsh settlement and land use practices during the Middle Ages, particularly in upland regions where this building tradition persisted. The associated paddock indicates the integration of domestic space with pastoral agricultural activities characteristic of medieval Welsh farming communities.
