Roman signal station is a scheduled ancient monument located in Norfolk, England, dating to the Roman period. The site represents part of the coastal defensive infrastructure of Roman Britain, likely constructed during the later Roman occupation to monitor maritime traffic and potential threats along the Norfolk coast. The station would have functioned as part of a wider network of fortified positions that communicated through visual signals, contributing to the military organisation of the province during this strategically important period.
