Castell Henllys is an archaeological site near Nevern in north Pembrokeshire, Wales.
The Iron Age hillfort has been the subject of an ongoing excavation since the start of the 21st century, accompanied by an exercise in reconstruction archaeology whereby experiments in prehistoric farming have been practised. Four roundhouses and a granary have been reconstructed on their original Iron Age foundations – some 2,000 years old – the hillfort being the only site in Britain where this has been done. The Castell Henllys site includes significant earthworks and fortifications.
During the summer the site provides training for young archaeologists and is a popular visitor attraction. It is owned by Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.

Pengelli National Nature Reserve is part of the largest block of ancient oak woodland in West Wales. It has survived for hundreds of years, despite being modified by people. Lying near the village of Eglwyswrw in the north of Pembrokeshire, it makes up part of the gentle agricultural landscape which lies between the foot of the Preseli hills and the sea. Species found in this rich woodland include badgers, polecats and the elusive dormouse.
The woodland was owned during Elizabethan times by the Pembrokeshire historian George Owen of Henllys. The woodland was designated as a National Nature Reserve in 1995.
In 2021, the Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales purchased the adjacent 33-acre Pencnwc Mawr Wood. A further 13 acres of adjacent land was purchased by WTSWW in 2023 with the intention of expanding the woodland.
