Derventio is a Roman fort and settlement located in Yorkshire, England, situated at the confluence of the River Derwent and River Ouse near the village of Malton. The site dates to the Roman occupation of Britain, functioning as a military installation during the first and second centuries AD as part of the defensive infrastructure of Roman Yorkshire. Archaeological evidence indicates the fort served as a strategic point controlling river communications and access routes through the northern territories.
