Red House Roman camp is a first-century Roman auxiliary fort located near Corbridge in Northumberland. The site dates to the Flavian period, likely established during the campaigns of Agricola in northern Britain, and represents one of several military installations constructed to consolidate Roman control of the region. Archaeological evidence indicates the fort followed the characteristic playing-card plan typical of Roman auxiliary fortifications, with ditches and ramparts defining its defensive perimeter. The camp lies within the broader strategic network of Roman forts along the Tyne valley that supported the Roman advance into Scotland.
