The Roman temporary camp at Milnquarter in Stirlingshire is a second-century military installation associated with Roman campaigns in Scotland during the Antonine period. Located approximately 240 metres south-east of the Antonine Wall itself, the camp represents logistical infrastructure supporting the forward operations and garrison activities along this frontier. The site exhibits the characteristic rectilinear defensive ditches typical of Roman temporary camps, which would have accommodated legionary or auxiliary forces during the occupation and consolidation of the Antonine advance. Its proximity to the Wall indicates its role within the broader system of Roman military control in northern Britain during the second century AD.
