Long Wood Camp is a medieval enclosure located in Radnorshire, Wales. The site comprises an earthwork defence consisting of a bank and ditch arrangement typical of medieval period fortifications in the Welsh Marches. The enclosure is situated within woodland, which has influenced both its preservation and archaeological visibility. Such enclosures served defensive and administrative functions during the medieval period, reflecting the disputed and militarised nature of the Anglo-Welsh border region during the Middle Ages.
