Bean Burn 2 is a Roman temporary camp situated in Northumberland, dating to the Roman period of occupation in Britain. The site represents one of a series of temporary camps constructed during Roman military campaigns in the region, likely associated with the advance northwards during the 1st or 2nd century AD. The camp's physical remains survive as earthwork features that reflect the standard Roman military layout, with defensive ditches and ramparts characteristic of such installations. These temporary camps provide important archaeological evidence for understanding Roman military strategy and movements across northern Britain during the period of imperial expansion.
