Gardden Camp & Barrows is a prehistoric hillfort located in Wales, designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument (SAM MG070) under Cadw protection. The site comprises defensive earthworks typical of Iron Age fortification, with associated burial mounds that indicate sustained occupation and ritual activity across the prehistoric period. The defensive character of the camp, marked by its ramparts and ditches, reflects the settlement hierarchy and territorial concerns of Iron Age communities in Wales. The barrows present on the site suggest that Gardden held significance as both a defensive stronghold and a place of burial ritual, making it an important example of multifunctional prehistoric settlement in the Welsh landscape.
