Molleston Camp is a prehistoric enclosure located in Pembrokeshire, Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under reference PE274. The site comprises an oval or roughly circular earthwork defined by a single ditch and bank, characteristic of Iron Age defensive settlements in south Wales, though the precise dating remains uncertain. Its physical form suggests occupation during the later prehistoric period, likely serving as a defended settlement or fortified homestead. The monument represents an important example of the settlement hierarchy that developed in Iron Age Pembrokeshire, reflecting patterns of land use and territorial organisation in this southwestern corner of Wales.
