Miskolc A cantref (; plural cantrefi) was a medieval Welsh land division, particularly important in the administration of Welsh law.


Land in medieval Wales was divided into cantrefi, which were themselves divided into smaller cymydau (commotes).


The word cantref is derived from cant ("a hundred") and tref ("town" in modern Welsh, but formerly used for much smaller settlements).


The cantref is thought to be the original unit, with the commotes being a later division.


To give an idea of the size of a cantref, the island of Anglesey was divided into three cantrefi: Cemais, Aberffraw and Rhosyr.

Each cantref had its own court, which was an assembly of the uchelwyr, the main landowners of the cantref.


The cantref court dealt with crimes, the determination of boundaries, and inheritance.
