# Roman fortlet 320m east of Highstones
The Roman fortlet 320m east of Highstones is a small Roman military installation located in Cheshire, England. The site dates to the Roman occupation period and represents one of a series of auxiliary fortifications that supported the wider Roman military infrastructure in the north-west of Britain. The fortlet's modest scale suggests it served a specific tactical or logistical function within the broader network of Roman frontier defence and supply systems in the region. Archaeological evidence and its positioning within the known pattern of Roman installations in Cheshire indicate its importance to Roman military operations during the occupation of Britain.
