A Roman fortlet, 200m SSE of Castrigg, is a small auxiliary military installation located in Westmorland in the north-west of England. The fortlet dates to the Roman period and forms part of the network of defensive and supply installations established across northern Britain during the imperial occupation. Its position reflects Roman strategic control of the upland terrain and communication routes in the region, typical of the pattern of fortification that characterised Roman military organisation in Britannia. The site remains an important archaeological record of Roman provincial administration, though its precise dimensions and structural details would require specialist survey work to establish with certainty.
