Watling Lodge was a Roman fortlet on the Antonine Wall in Scotland.[1] It was located near what is now Lock Sixteen on the Forth and Clyde Canal in Falkirk with neighbouring forts at Rough Castle to the west and Falkirk to the east.[2] There was also a fort at Camelon to the north. There was also a Roman temporary camp found a short distance south of the site.[3]
