Wentloog Hundred (also known as Wentlloog and Wentllooge) was an ancient hundred of Monmouthshire. It was also known as Newport Hundred.

It was situated in the western part of the county, bounded to the north by Breconshire or Brecknockshire; on the east by the hundreds of Abergavenny, Usk and Caldicot; on the south by the Bristol Channel, and on the west by the county of Glamorgan. Wentloog is an anglicisation of the Welsh Gwynllŵg, the name of the early kingdom and medieval cantref.
