Old Warren Hill Hillfort is a prehistoric fortified settlement located in Ceredigion, Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under Cadw reference CD168. The site comprises a univallate hillfort, characterised by a single defensive rampart enclosing an elevated position, typical of Iron Age fortifications in Wales, though the specific dating of this particular monument remains subject to archaeological interpretation. The hillfort's defensive works and elevated location reflect strategic settlement patterns of prehistoric communities, offering evidence of territorial organisation and possibly conflict management in the region during the later prehistoric period. Such hillforts represent significant expressions of social hierarchy and communal labour in Iron Age society.
