Building on a national scoping study by Gwynedd Archaeological Trust, Cambria Archaeology undertook a detailed assessment of prehistoric defended enclosures in Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire between 2005 and 2007, with support from Cadw. Over 360 sites were reviewed in Pembrokeshire alone, ranging from hillforts and promontory forts to smaller defended enclosures. While many of the larger monuments remain in stable condition, some smaller earthwork sites have shown signs of degradation. This survey forms a key step in understanding and managing these important prehistoric landscapes.
