Castle Ring is a prehistoric enclosure located in Radnorshire, Wales, designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument under the reference Cadw SAM RD062. The site comprises a roughly circular or oval earthwork defined by banks and ditches, characteristic of Iron Age hillfort construction in the Welsh borderlands, though dating and occupation evidence require archaeological confirmation. Its position within the upland landscape of Radnorshire reflects the settlement patterns typical of later prehistoric communities in this region. The monument represents an important example of defensive or communal enclosure from the Iron Age period, though detailed archaeological investigation would be necessary to establish its precise chronology and function.
