Troutbeck Roman fort and annexe is a Roman military installation located in Cumberland in the Lake District region of northern England. The fort dates to the Roman occupation of Britain, likely established during the second century AD as part of the defensive infrastructure controlling the upland territories of the north. The site comprises the fort itself together with an associated annexe, a common arrangement at Roman forts where additional structures for storage, workshops, or auxiliary accommodation could be accommodated outside the main fortification. The monument survives as earthwork remains and represents an important archaeological record of Roman military presence in the challenging terrain of the Cumbrian uplands during the imperial period.
