Trawsgoed Roman Fort is a Roman auxiliary fort located in Ceredigion, Wales, positioned strategically within the upland zone of Roman Wales. The fort dates to the late first century AD, established as part of Rome's military infrastructure during the campaigns of consolidation following the invasion of Britain. Its earthwork defences remain visible on the landscape, comprising the characteristic ditches and rampart systems typical of Roman auxiliary installations of this period. The fort served as a key strategic point in the Roman military network controlling the Welsh interior, facilitating the subjugation and garrisoning of the Silures and surrounding tribal territories during the Flavian period.
