Bagraw Roman camp is a fortified military installation located in Northumberland, positioned approximately 463 metres north-north-west of the settlement of Bagraw. The site dates to the Roman period and represents part of the strategic network of forts and associated infrastructure established during Rome's occupation of northern Britain. Adjacent to the camp lies a section of Roman road, which would have facilitated military communication and supply routes across the region. The physical remains of both the camp and road survive as earthwork features and constitute important archaeological evidence of Roman military organisation in this area of Northumberland.
