Lees Hall Roman camp is a first-century Roman military installation located in Northumberland. The site represents one of the auxiliary forts constructed during the early phases of Roman occupation in northern Britain, likely dating to the Flavian period. The camp's earthworks survive as ditches and banks that define its characteristic playing-card shaped layout, typical of Roman military architecture. Its strategic position reflects Rome's systematic consolidation of control over the frontier regions during the campaigns that preceded the construction of Hadrian's Wall.
