Tredegar Fort is a prehistoric hillfort located in Monmouthshire, Wales. The site comprises an Iron Age fortified settlement, likely dating to the later prehistoric period, characterised by defensive earthworks that would have enclosed a substantial settlement area. The fort's position within the landscape reflects the strategic concerns of Iron Age communities in South Wales, serving as both a place of habitation and a centre of defence. Like other hillforts of its era, Tredegar Fort represents an important phase in the development of settlement hierarchy and territorial organisation in pre-Roman Britain.
