Here are the top 10 Roman places to visit in Scotland, with a Roman museum or place of interest nearby.

Scotland’s biggest fort and the location of the only confirmed amphitheatre. The nearby Roman Trimontium Museum in Melrose is Scotland’s only dedicated Roman museum.

The carved lion found here is one of the best sculptures found in Scotland. The Cramond fort layout can be seen in the churchyard.
