Caersws Roman road is a Roman transport route in Montgomeryshire, Wales, that formed part of the strategic network connecting Roman military and civilian settlements across mid-Wales during the imperial period. The road is associated with the Roman fort at Caersws itself, which served as a significant installation on the route linking the legionary fortress at Caernarfon to the south and east. The surviving sections of the road retain characteristic Roman engineering features, including evidence of metalled surface construction typical of Roman military roads in Britain. The route dates primarily to the 1st and 2nd centuries AD, reflecting the period of active Roman military campaigning and occupation in Wales.
