Chew Green, Roman archaeological site in Northumberland, England.
The complex contains a Roman fort, two fortlets, and two camps spread across 17 acres of land near the Scottish border.
Archaeological excavations in the 1930s revealed military structures along Dere Street, the Roman road connecting York to territories in Scotland.
The site demonstrates the strategic placement of Roman military installations for controlling movement between England and Scotland during ancient times.
The archaeological site sits within the Otterburn Military Training Area of Northumberland National Park, requiring special permission for access.
Medieval remains of Kemylpethe settlement, including a small chapel, were discovered overlaying the original Roman military structures.
