Hadrian's Wall: Wallsend to Bowness-on-Solway
Hadrian's Wall ran 73 miles across northern England, from Segedunum at Wallsend on the Tyne to Bowness-on-Solway, begun in AD 122 under Emperor Hadrian. Six stops, from Chesters and Housesteads to Vindolanda and Birdoswald, show how it was built, changed and garrisoned. The route follows the wall west, from Roman forts to the Solway shore. The exact western end of the wall near Bowness is not known.
