Roman Castle is a prehistoric defended settlement or rath located in Pembrokeshire, Wales. The site comprises a circular or oval enclosure defined by banks and ditches, characteristic of Iron Age hill forts and defended homesteads typical of Welsh prehistoric settlement patterns. Although designated as Roman Castle, the monument dates primarily to the Iron Age rather than the Roman period, reflecting a common naming convention in the region. The site represents an important example of the defensive settlement hierarchy that existed in Pembrokeshire during the pre-Roman Iron Age.
