Coesike West Roman temporary camps 1 and 2 are a pair of Roman military encampments located in Northumberland, England. These temporary camps date to the Roman period, likely associated with military campaigns in northern Britain, possibly during the campaigns of Agricola in the late first century AD or subsequent operations in the region. The camps are identified through their characteristic defensive earthworks, including ditches and ramparts typical of Roman temporary fortifications, which would have served as short-term bases for marching armies. Their presence in Northumberland reflects the strategic military operations undertaken by Rome to establish and maintain control over the northern frontier of Roman Britain.
