Gogerddan Camp is a prehistoric hillfont located in Ceredigion, Wales, situated on elevated terrain characteristic of Iron Age defensive settlements. The site is defined by substantial earthwork ramparts that enclose an irregular area, typical of upland fortified enclosures constructed during the Iron Age period. The camp's strategic position reflects the settlement patterns of Iron Age communities in mid-Wales, where such fortifications served both defensive and territorial functions. The monument remains an important archaeological record of prehistoric settlement and social organisation in the region, protected under Cadw's schedule of ancient monuments.
