Trevallen Downs Tank Range is a Second World War firing range located in Pembrokeshire, Wales, established as part of the military infrastructure supporting Allied operations during the 1939–1945 conflict. The site represents the extensive militarisation of the Welsh landscape during wartime, when designated training areas were developed to prepare armoured forces for combat operations in Europe. Physical remains at the location reflect the functional character typical of mid-twentieth-century military ranges, with features associated with tracked vehicle training and gunnery practice. The range exemplifies the strategic importance placed on intensive military preparation within South Wales during the latter stages of the Second World War and the immediate post-war period.
