This article is about the early tenth-century king. For other kings of the same name, see Dyfnwal (disambiguation) and Dumnagual (disambiguation).
Dyfnwal (died 908×915) was King of Strathclyde.[note 1] Although his parentage is unknown, he was probably a member of the Cumbrian dynasty that is recorded to have ruled the Kingdom of Strathclyde immediately before him. Dyfnwal is attested by only one source, a mediaeval chronicle that places his death between the years 908 and 915.
