Cornhill Roman camp is a Roman military installation located north of Cornhill in Lanarkshire, Scotland, dating to the late first or early second century AD during the period of Roman military expansion and consolidation in northern Britain. The camp represents evidence of Rome's strategic presence in the region during campaigns that ultimately led to the construction of the Antonine Wall further north. The site displays the characteristic rectangular layout typical of Roman auxiliary forts, with defensive ditches and earthwork ramparts that remain visible in the landscape despite subsequent agricultural use and erosion over nearly two millennia.
