A Roman camp is a temporary military enclosure situated approximately four hundred metres south-southwest of Sills Farm in Northumberland. The site represents a marching camp of the Roman imperial period, constructed during military campaigns in northern Britain, likely associated with the conquest and consolidation of the region during the first and second centuries AD. The camp's defences would have comprised a ditch and rampart system typical of temporary Roman military installations, designed to protect troops during extended operations rather than serve as a permanent garrison. Though the physical remains are now visible primarily as earthworks, the site preserves archaeological evidence of Roman military logistics and strategy in the frontier zone of Roman Britain.
