Caerwent Training Area is a British military installation at Caerwent, Monmouthshire, Wales. The large military site is situated north of the A48 road about 5 mi (8.0 km) west of Chepstow and 12 miles (19 km) east of Newport.
Established as the Royal Navy Propellant Factory, Caerwent in 1939, it was originally dedicated to the manufacture and storage of Royal Naval munitions. It has been used as a training area since its closure as an armament works in 1966, and between 1967 and 1993 was RAF Caerwent.
Caerwent Barracks is to be built on the site to house 1st The Queen's Dragoon Guards and 1st Battalion, The Rifles from 2027.[1] As at 2023, the site is under construction.
