Sunny Rigg 3 is a Roman temporary camp located in Northumberland, England. The site dates to the Roman period and represents one of several temporary military installations in the region associated with Roman campaigning activity. Like other examples of this monument type, the camp would have served as a short-term military base during Roman operations in northern Britain, with its characteristic ditch and rampart defences now visible as cropmarks or earthwork traces in the landscape. The identification and study of such temporary camps contributes to understanding the patterns and logistics of Roman military movement and control in the frontier zones of Roman Britain.
