Limestone Corner Roman temporary camp is a Roman military installation located in Northumberland.

The site preserves evidence of the characteristic defensive earthworks typical of Roman temporary camps, including ditches and ramparts. Such camps served as secure bases for Roman forces during their expeditions into Scotland and the north, reflecting the strategic military operations undertaken during the imperial period.
