The Roman camp 300 metres west of Upton Grange Farm is a military installation of the Roman period located in Cheshire. The site represents one of a series of auxiliary forts and temporary camps established across the region during Rome's conquest and occupation of Britain, likely dating to the first or second century AD. The camp's defensive character is evidenced by its ditched earthwork perimeter, which survives as an archaeological feature in the modern landscape. Its presence in this location reflects the strategic importance of the Cheshire region within the broader Roman military network controlling north-western Britain.
