Condercum was a Roman fort on the site of the modern-day Condercum Estate in Benwell, a suburb of Newcastle upon Tyne, England. It was the third fort on Hadrian's Wall, about east of Rudchester fort and only west of Pons Aelius fort (Newcastle), and was situated on a hilltop to the west of the city.
