Llwynda-Ddu Camp, also known as Llwynda-Ddu Hillfort, is a small iron age earthwork in Pentyrch, Cardiff in South Wales. The site is a scheduled monument, described as a prehistoric, defensive hillfort.{{r|Cadw Schedule}}

The plan of the camp is egg-shaped and lies at the western end of a small hill at a height of approximately {{convert|120|m|ft}}. The ground falls away sharply on all sides except the eastern end. The entrance is at the smaller south-western end.{{r|Coflein Hillfort|GGAT Hillfort}}

The camp probably comprised two ramparts with ditches but much of the outer ring has been destroyed. The entrance is a straight causeway which interrupts the inner and outer rings. The height of the bank is approximately {{convert|2.5|m|ft|sigfig=1}} higher than the ditch bottom. The inner area measures {{convert|85|m|ft}} by {{convert|60|m|ft}} giving an area of {{convert|0.4|ha|acre|sigfig=1}}.

{{r|Coflein Hillfort|GGAT Hillfort}}

The site has been cultivated, with a modern dwelling nearby.{{r|GGAT Hillfort|Coflein Dwelling}} It is suggested that the camp belonged to the Silures.{{r|Mortimer Cardiff}}
