Roman marching camp is a scheduled ancient monument located in Lincolnshire, England. The site represents a temporary military installation dating to the Roman period, when such camps served as overnight stopping points for mobile legionary forces during campaigns or strategic movements across Britain. The camp's earthworks, which survive as defensive ditches and banks, demonstrate the standardised planning and engineering practices characteristic of Roman military operations. As one of a network of similar installations across the province, this site contributes to understanding Roman military logistics and the routes of army movement during the occupation of Britain.
