Bravinium is a Roman auxiliary fort located near Leintwardine in Herefordshire, situated on the River Teme in the frontier zone of Roman Britain. The fort dates to the mid-first century AD and formed part of the military infrastructure established during the Roman conquest and occupation of Wales and the Welsh Marches. Archaeological investigation has revealed structural remains consistent with a playing-card-shaped fort layout typical of auxiliary installations, with evidence of internal buildings and defensive ditches. The site represents an important strategic position within the network of Roman forts that controlled this inland frontier region during the first and second centuries AD.
