Three temporary camps at Farnley Grange is a complex of three Roman marching camps situated in Northumberland. The camps date to the Roman period and represent temporary military installations constructed during campaigns, likely associated with the operations of Roman forces in northern Britain. The sites are identified through cropmark evidence and earthwork remains that indicate the characteristic playing-card layout and defensive ditches typical of Roman temporary camps. These camps form part of the wider archaeological record of Roman military activity in the region and contribute to understanding the logistics and movement of Roman armies during their occupation and campaigns in northern Britain.
