Keithock is a Roman camp located north of East Mains of Keithock in Angus, Scotland. The site represents a temporary military installation dating to the Roman occupation period in Scotland, likely associated with campaigns conducted during the first and second centuries AD. The camp's defences comprise characteristic Roman ditched enclosures, although the site's current condition reflects the effects of subsequent agricultural use on the landscape.
