Old Warren Hill Hillfort is a prehistoric defensive earthwork located in Ceredigion, Wales, and is a scheduled ancient monument under the Cadw register. The site consists of a substantial univallate hillfort, characterised by a single defensive rampart and ditch system that encloses an elevated position on the landscape. Dating to the Iron Age period, the monument represents a form of fortified settlement typical of the prehistoric communities inhabiting Wales during the later pre-Roman era. The hillfort would have served both defensive and settlement functions, providing protection and a focal point for the surrounding community during a period when such elevated, fortified positions held considerable strategic and social significance.
