Din Lligwy Hut Group (Din Llugwy)
Free Cadw site near Moelfre: the stone walls of a late Roman-period farming settlement, with Capel Lligwy and Lligwy Burial Chamber a short walk away.
Din Lligwy is the low stone outline of a farming settlement from the late Roman period. Coins, pottery and glass found here date it to the 3rd and 4th centuries AD, and traces outside the enclosure suggest people may have used the site as early as the Iron Age.
Inside a thick stone wall are two round huts and several rectangular buildings, covering an area of more than a quarter of a football pitch. The wall probably kept livestock in rather than enemies out, and the rectangular buildings may have been barns or workshops.
Good to know
Cadw grades the terrain as moderate. The ground can be muddy or slippery and there are uneven old steps, so wear sensible footwear. Cattle or other farm animals may be grazing on neighbouring land. The ruined chapel of Capel Lligwy and Lligwy Burial Chamber are both close by, so it is easy to see all three in one visit.
