Caerleon Civil Settlement is a Roman civil settlement located southeast of Castle Street in Caerleon, Monmouthshire, dating to the Roman occupation of Britain. The site comprises the remains of buildings and structures associated with the civilian population that developed around the legionary fortress of Isca Augustinorum, which was garrisoned from approximately AD 75 onwards. The settlement represents the characteristic vicus or extra-mural settlement that typically grew up in response to the economic opportunities and administrative needs created by a major Roman military installation. As a designated scheduled ancient monument under Cadw, the site preserves important archaeological evidence of Romano-British civilian life, domestic occupation, and commercial activity during the Roman period in Wales.
