First recorded through cropmarks in 1992 by RCAHMS, the camp at Glenluce lies on sloping ground east of the Water of Luce, close to its confluence with the Solway Firth at Luce Sands. It lies immediately north of the Roman road from Glenlochar to Loch Ryan, evidenced by the cropmarkings of quarry pits. The camp is slightly irregular in form, but measures about 465m from northeast to south-west by almost 400m transversely, enclosing 17.9ha (44 acres). An entrance gap protected by a titulus is visible in the south-west side.
