Cefn Blewog Camp is a prehistoric enclosure located in Ceredigion, Wales, and represents an important example of Iron Age settlement and defensive architecture in the region. The site consists of earthwork remains forming an enclosed settlement, typical of the fortified farmsteads and hillforts that characterised Iron Age communities in Wales during the first millennium BC. The enclosure's physical layout and construction reflect the settlement patterns and social organisation of prehistoric Welsh communities, though detailed chronological evidence for the specific phases of occupation remains to be fully established through archaeological investigation. As a scheduled monument under Cadw protection, Cefn Blewog Camp preserves evidence of prehistoric land use and territorial control in the upland zones of mid-Wales.
