Camp near Garth-Penrhyn-Coch is a prehistoric enclosure located in Ceredigion, Wales. The monument comprises an earthwork defence system characteristic of Iron Age settlement patterns in Wales, consisting of ramparts and ditches that would have enclosed and protected a domestic or communal space. The site's precise dating within the prehistoric period remains under scholarly consideration, though its morphological features are consistent with later Iron Age fortified settlements of the first millennium BC. The enclosure represents an important example of defensive architecture from the later prehistoric period in mid-Wales, contributing to our understanding of settlement hierarchy and territorial organisation during this era.
