Neath Roman Site is a Roman fort located in the lower Neath valley in Glamorgan, Wales. The fort was established in the late first century AD as part of the Roman military infrastructure for the conquest and occupation of South Wales. Positioned strategically to control the river crossing and surrounding territory, the fort served as an important garrison during the Roman period. The site is now largely buried, though archaeological investigation has revealed its layout and military character, contributing significantly to understanding Roman Wales during the occupation period.
