Springhill Roman camp is a Roman auxiliary fort located in Northumberland, dating to the second century AD. The site occupies a strategic position within the network of forts established along the Stanegate frontier during the period before the construction of Hadrian's Wall. The camp preserves evidence of the characteristic playing-card layout typical of Roman military installations, with visible earthwork remains of ditches and ramparts marking its defensive perimeter. Archaeological investigation and surface survey have contributed to understanding the fort's role in controlling communications and movements across the northern frontier zone of Roman Britain.
