Moel Gyw Round Barrow is a prehistoric funerary monument located in Denbighshire, Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under the Cadw reference DE063. The barrow dates to the Bronze Age and represents a burial tradition characteristic of the second millennium BCE in Wales. The monument survives as a substantial earthwork mound on elevated terrain, typical of round barrows constructed across the Welsh uplands during this period. Such monuments served as focal points for Bronze Age burial practice and ritual activity, often containing cremated or inhumed remains and occasionally grave goods, and frequently formed part of wider barrow cemetery landscapes.
