Camp 500yds (460m) NW of Chesterhill is a Roman marching camp located in Northumberland. The site represents a temporary military encampment of the type constructed by Roman forces during their campaigns in northern Britain, likely dating to the 1st or 2nd century AD. The camp's earthwork defences, consisting of ditches and banks, remain visible as archaeological features in the landscape. Such camps were characteristically built by the Roman army during advance or retreat operations and provide evidence of military organisation and movement through the region during the Roman occupation of Britain.
