Hafod Camp is a prehistoric promontory fort located in Carmarthenshire, Wales, designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The site occupies a naturally defended promontory and is fortified with defensive earthworks characteristic of Iron Age settlement patterns in Wales. The fort's construction and occupation likely date to the Iron Age period, when such fortified settlements served as centres of control and refuge for local communities. The monument remains an important archaeological example of prehistoric defensive architecture in the region, though much of its original structural detail has been altered by agricultural use and the passage of time.
