Built as part of Rome’s northernmost frontier, Rough Castle was a small earth and timber fort on the Antonine Wall. Only occupied for around twenty years it was seemingly attacked around AD 155 and, when the Romans re-established the frontier on Hadrian’s Wall in the AD 160s, the fort was abandoned.
