Uffington Roman Temporary Camp is a Roman military installation located near Shrewsbury in Shropshire. The site dates to the early Roman period, likely associated with the campaigns of the first century AD during the Roman conquest and consolidation of Britain. The camp is characterised by the defensive earthworks typical of temporary Roman military camps, with ditched enclosures that would have housed troops during the advance into Wales and the subjugation of the Midlands. Its location in this strategically important region reflects the military infrastructure established to control and supply Roman forces operating in the Welsh borderlands during the early imperial period.
