Bertha Roman Fort is a Roman auxiliary fort located in Perthshire, Scotland, dating to the early imperial period of Roman Britain. The fort occupies a strategic position on the River Tay and was constructed as part of the Roman military infrastructure established during the first and second centuries AD. Archaeological investigation has revealed traces of the fort's defensive ditches and internal structures, though much of the site now lies beneath modern development and riverine deposits. The fort served as an important garrison point in the Roman advance northwards into Caledonia and reflects the Roman military occupation of Scotland during the Antonine period and earlier campaigns.
