Foel Drygarn Camp is a prehistoric hillfort situated in Pembrokeshire, Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under reference PE010. The site comprises a multivallate Iron Age fortification, featuring multiple concentric banks and ditches that encircle the summit of Foel Drygarn, providing both defensive capability and territorial prominence across the surrounding landscape. Archaeological evidence indicates occupation and use during the Iron Age, with the defensive earthworks representing a significant investment in communal labour and engineering. The hillfort's position on high ground and its substantial fortifications suggest it served as a centre for settlement, storage, or refuge during a period of social organisation and potential inter-community competition in prehistoric Wales.
