Nash Point Camp is a prehistoric hillfort located in Glamorgan, Wales, situated on the headland at Nash Point overlooking the Bristol Channel. The site is defended by a substantial rampart and ditch system that encloses an area of approximately two hectares, characteristic of Iron Age fortified settlements in South Wales. Dating evidence suggests occupation during the Iron Age period, though the precise chronology remains difficult to establish from archaeological investigation alone. The camp's strategic coastal location indicates its importance as a defended settlement, possibly serving defensive and economic functions related to coastal and maritime activity in the Iron Age.
