The section of Stanegate Roman road from Fell End Roman temporary camp to the track to Old Shield is a Roman road forming part of the wider Stanegate frontier system in Northumberland. The Stanegate functioned as a military supply route connecting the Roman forts across northern Britain, predating Hadrian's Wall and remaining in use throughout the Roman occupation period. The road section is archaeologically significant for its association with the temporary camps and fort network of the Flavian and later periods, providing evidence of Roman military logistics and movement across the Pennines. The adjacent Roman cemetery at Carvoran fort represents inhumation and cremation burials associated with the fort garrison, offering insights into military funerary practices and the composition of the fort community during the Roman period.
