The Roman camp 200 metres west of Galleygill Bridge is a temporary marching camp of the Roman period, situated in Cumberland in northern England. The site represents one of the auxiliary camps associated with Roman military operations in the region, likely dating to the period of intensive campaigning during the first and second centuries AD. The camp's earthworks, though subject to erosion and agricultural use over nearly two millennia, retain sufficient topographical definition to indicate its characteristic playing-card layout and defensive ditches typical of Roman military installations. Its location within the broader context of Roman frontier infrastructure reflects the strategic importance of northern England during the Roman occupation of Britain.
