Tan y Clawdd Camp is a prehistoric hillfort situated in Wales and designated as a scheduled ancient monument (Cadw SAM MG131). The site dates to the Iron Age and represents one of the defensive settlements characteristic of that period in Wales, when hillforts served as communal gathering places, refuges, and territorial markers. The monument is defined by substantial earthwork defences, typically comprising banks and ditches that enclosed the hilltop settlement. Such sites are significant for understanding Iron Age settlement patterns, social organisation, and the strategic use of landscape in prehistoric Wales.
