Stembridge Camp is a prehistoric hillfort situated in Glamorgan, Wales. The monument comprises a roughly circular enclosure defined by a single substantial bank and ditch, typical of Iron Age defensive settlements in South Wales. Dating to the Iron Age period, the site represents an important example of the fortified settlements that characterised this region during the later prehistoric era. The camp's commanding position and defensive earthworks indicate its function as a place of refuge and administrative centre for the surrounding community.
