The enclosure at Millmount lies less than 1km to the west of the Roman fort and camps at Newstead. First recorded in 1960 by St Joseph from the air (1961: 121), some 150m of a north side, a rounded corner angle and 50m of the east have been visible through cropmarks. While it is not definitely a Roman camp, its proximity to Newstead increases the probability that it is. A second enclosure within the site does not have the appearance of a Roman structure.
