Nant Bwlch-glas lluest farmstead is a deserted rural settlement located in Ceredigion, Wales, dating to the post-medieval period and representing evidence of traditional upland agricultural practice. The site comprises the structural remains of a lluest, a seasonal shieling or temporary dwelling associated with pastoral farming systems common throughout Wales. Such settlements illustrate the historical organization of subsistence agriculture in upland areas, where livestock was moved seasonally to mountain pastures. The farmstead is now a scheduled ancient monument, recorded under Cadw reference SAM CD208, and contributes to understanding the evolution of rural settlement patterns and land use in medieval and early modern Ceredigion.
