Castell Meherin Camps is a prehistoric hillfort located in Pembrokeshire, Wales, situated within the landscape of Iron Age settlement patterns characteristic of south-western Britain. The site comprises defensive earthworks including ramparts and camps that reflect the architectural strategies employed during the Iron Age for territorial control and community protection. Its position in Pembrokeshire places it within a region that saw sustained prehistoric settlement and demonstrates the distribution of hillforts across the Welsh peninsula during the later prehistoric period. The monument's physical remains preserve evidence of the defensive infrastructure typical of Iron Age communities in this region, contributing to the archaeological understanding of prehistoric Welsh settlement hierarchies and social organisation.
