Brown Dikes Roman temporary camp is a Roman marching camp located in Northumberland. The site dates to the Roman period and forms part of the defensive and logistical infrastructure associated with Roman military operations in northern Britain. Like other temporary camps of its type, it would have served as a short-term encampment for Roman troops during campaigns, rather than as a permanent fortification. The camp's earthworks, though subject to landscape changes over two millennia, remain archaeologically significant as evidence of Roman military organisation and movement through the region.
