Twyn y Bridallt is a Roman marching camp located in Carmarthenshire, Wales, dating to the first century AD. The site preserves the characteristic rectangular plan typical of Roman temporary military installations, with surviving earthwork defences that mark its perimeter. As part of the network of Roman camps established during the campaigns to secure and control Wales, particularly under governors such as Agricola, the camp represents an important phase in Roman military expansion into the western territories of Britain. The site's survival as an archaeological monument provides evidence of Roman strategic organisation and the logistical infrastructure required to support their military operations in this region during the early Imperial period.
