Johnstonehall is a Roman camp complex situated in Dumfriesshire, south-west Scotland, forming part of the network of military installations established during Rome's campaigns in Britain. The site dates to the Roman period, likely associated with the military operations of the first and second centuries AD when Roman forces were advancing into and consolidating control of northern Britain. The camp demonstrates the characteristic features of Roman military architecture, including defensive ditches and ramparts designed for temporary or semi-permanent occupation.
