Bryngwyn Wood Camp is a prehistoric hillfort located in Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under Cadw reference SAM MG029. The site represents Iron Age defensive settlement, a period when such fortified enclosures served as centres of control and refuge across the Welsh landscape. The camp is defined by earthwork fortifications comprising banks and ditches that once enclosed a defended settlement area within the woodland setting that gives the site its name. As with many Welsh hillforts, Bryngwyn Wood Camp reflects the strategic importance of elevated positions during the Iron Age, though detailed archaeological investigation of this particular site remains limited in the published scholarly record.
