Camp W of Cwm Cefn y Gaer is a prehistoric hillfort located in Radnorshire, Wales. The site consists of defensive earthworks characteristic of Iron Age settlement patterns in the Welsh borderlands, with ramparts and ditches designed to enclose and protect a hilltop settlement. The fort's physical remains reflect the strategic importance of elevated positions in this region during the Iron Age period, when such fortified enclosures served as centres of habitation, storage, and territorial control. Like many Welsh hillforts, Camp W demonstrates the sophisticated defensive architecture and settlement strategies employed by Iron Age communities in upland areas.
