Seatsides 2 is a Roman temporary camp located in Northumberland, England. The site dates to the Roman period of Britain and represents one of the military installations associated with Roman campaigns in the north of the province. Like other temporary camps of this era, it would have served as a short-term encampment for Roman forces during operations, rather than functioning as a permanent fort. The physical remains of the camp survive as earthwork features visible in the landscape, preserving evidence of Roman military organisation and movement through the region during the frontier campaigns.
