Brown Dikes Roman temporary camp is a first or second century Roman military enclosure located in Northumberland. The site represents one of several temporary camps constructed during the Roman campaigns in northern Britain, particularly in relation to the military operations conducted under governors such as Agricola in the late first century AD. The camp is identifiable through its characteristic defensive earthworks, including the ditched perimeter typical of Roman temporary marching camps. Its location within Northumberland reflects the strategic importance of the region during Rome's conquest and subsequent military presence in Britain.
