The image below is from Housesteads
Roman Fort looking east along Hadrian's
Wall. This is one of the best places for
walking along the wall.
The wall ends not far over the hill in
the distance, it is then a mound and path
from there east towards Chesters Fort,
Corbridge Fort and Newcastle.
The wall runs west to Cawfield Quarry,
about 5 miles in distance. This is the top
section of Hadrian's wall, winding its way
over the hilltops for about 7 miles. About
2 miles west is Sycamore Gap, where the
most famous tree in the north of England
grew next to the wall, between two rocky
hills.
