Castell Flemish is a prehistoric hillfort situated in Ceredigion, Wales, designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument under reference CD021. The site dates to the Iron Age and represents an important example of the defended settlements that characterised this period in Wales. The hillfort is defined by substantial earthwork defences comprising banks and ditches that enclose the hilltop summit, a characteristic feature of Iron Age fortification strategy in the region. Such sites served both defensive and administrative functions within their communities, and Castell Flemish's position commands significant views across the surrounding landscape, typical of strategically positioned hillforts of this era.
