Llanddewi Gaer is a prehistoric promontory fort located inland in Pembrokeshire, Wales. The monument comprises a defended headland position defined by substantial earthwork defences, characteristic of Iron Age fortification strategies in south-west Wales. The site's topography and defensive features indicate occupation during the Iron Age period, when such promontory forts served as territorial strongholds and centres of local authority. The fort represents an important example of prehistoric settlement hierarchy and defensive architecture within the Pembrokeshire landscape, contributing to understanding of pre-Roman Welsh settlement patterns.
