Hadrian's Wall

well if im honest i said this place wasnt worth visiting. well thats just for me! i live in northumberland and have therefore visited various parts of hadrians wall to many times to count!

if i was visiting the area then yes it probably be worth a vist though!

We made this a stop on my first trip through the UK. We visited a couple of different spots along the wall on the way to Scotland. Its impressive that someone, or rather multiple people moved that many stones to build a wall stretching that far. What dedication!

The Elliot clan were border reavers up until the time of the combined kingdom under James. And though they likely did not live near the wall while it was being built, I have a desire to see the land of my ancestors.

although i spent my time here being ill so didn’t really go outside much( and went in Winter so was cold and windy and just horrible). what i did see of the place seemed to be nice. went on a walk along the top, great views and would be good walk if i was helthy at the time. i’d definatly go back there- (although not to the same accomedation as had mild food poisioning.) all-in all a nice place.

went with hubby and kids, walked along the wall to where they filmed the bit in Robin Hood(starring kevin costner and morgan freeman) where they have just arrived on land and they climb the wall and there is a solitary tree( does any one know the scene that I am on about?) just amazing to be aware of the sheer scale of the wall, makes you wonder what it was like for the men that were there to build something of such great significance.
