Overview

History & significance

Camp 200m NE of Stoneyford is a prehistoric promontory fort situated on the Pembrokeshire coast in Wales. The monument occupies a naturally defensive coastal headland position, typical of Iron Age settlement patterns in South Wales, though its precise dating within the prehistoric period remains subject to archaeological interpretation. The site's defensive character is expressed through its exploitation of the promontory's natural topography, which would have provided protection from landward approach. Like other coastal promontory forts of this region, it likely served as a settlement, refuge, or territorial marker during the later prehistoric period, reflecting the strategic importance of Pembrokeshire's coastline in antiquity.
