Llandough Castle is a medieval fortified site located in the Vale of Glamorgan in South Wales. The remains comprise the foundations and fragmentary walls of a hall structure, representing the defensive and residential architecture of the medieval Welsh gentry. The site dates to the medieval period, likely constructed during the twelfth or thirteenth century, reflecting the strategic importance of the region during a period of considerable military activity between Norman and Welsh interests. The hall remains, though substantial in plan, have been much reduced through time, yet they continue to provide evidence of the domestic and defensive arrangements characteristic of medieval Welsh elite settlements in this strategically significant lowland area.
