Crococalana is a Roman settlement situated in Nottinghamshire, England, which served as a significant site along the Roman road network during the Imperial period. The town occupied a strategic location in the East Midlands and functioned as a centre of commerce and administration during the Roman occupation of Britain. Archaeological evidence indicates occupation from the first to fourth centuries AD, with the settlement forming part of the wider Roman infrastructure that connected major urban centres across the province. The site has yielded artefactual material consistent with a mixed civilian and military presence typical of Romano-British roadside settlements.
