Cae Ddunod Camp is a prehistoric hillfort located in Denbighshire, Wales, situated on elevated terrain that would have offered strategic defensive advantages to its Iron Age inhabitants. The site is defined by its characteristic defensive earthworks, comprising banks and ditches that once enclosed an area of settlement and refuge. Like other hillforts of the Iron Age period in Wales, Cae Ddunod represents the fortified settlements constructed across Britain during the later prehistoric period, serving functions that encompassed both domestic occupation and defence against rival communities. The monument remains an important archaeological resource for understanding settlement patterns and defensive architecture in Iron Age Wales.
