thumb|upright=1.5|1575 engraving showing the site of Duroliponte between Cambridge Castle and the bridge Duroliponte or Durolipons was a small town in the Roman province of Britannia on the site of what is now the city of Cambridge.
The site of Roman Cambridge is located on Castle Hill, just northwest of the city centre. The fort () was bounded on two sides by the lines formed by the present Mount Pleasant, continuing across Huntingdon Road into Clare Street. The eastern side followed Magrath Avenue, with the southern side running near to Chesterton Lane and Kettle's Yard before turning northwest at Honey Hill.
