Roman camp on Huntington South Moor is a Roman military installation located approximately three hundred metres east of Huntington Grange in Yorkshire. The site represents temporary or semi-permanent Roman occupation during the period of military campaigns in northern Britain, likely dating to the first or second century AD. The camp survives as earthwork remains visible on the moor, preserving the characteristic defensive ditches and ramparts typical of Roman marching camps or auxiliary forts of this period. Its location within the wider landscape of Roman military activity in Yorkshire contributes to understanding the strategic deployment of forces during Rome's occupation of Britain.
