Clawdd Mawr marked the eastern boundary of the Kingdom of Dyfed. Dyfed was bounded, in characteristic Celtic manner, by streams (the Bargod and the Teifi to the north, and the Duad, Gwili and Tywi to the east). This left a narrow neck of land across the watershed where a man-made boundary was required. The bank originally extended slightly farther north.
