What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Caer;Pen y Gaer, Glasgoed as Defended Enclosure from the Iron Age period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Caer;Pen y Gaer, Glasgoed is a hilltop enclosure traditionally associated with early-medieval ringforts or raths, though the National Monuments Record of Wales classifies it as an Iron Age defended enclosure. Local tradition may link such sites to fairy folklore, as "Caer" often appears in Welsh legends connected to otherworldly or ancient royal courts.
