Hadrian’s Wall

By Mac, November 19, 2009 00:46

Hadrian’s Wall was built in AD122 on the orders of the Roman Emperor Hadrian, and stretched from the East to West coasts of Britain, from Bowness on Solway in the West to Wallsend in the East. It is the most remarkable Roman monument in the country, and quite unique throughout the former Empire.

Today, over 1800 years after its construction, Hadrian’s Wall still offers spectacular remains for examination. In 2007, figures show over 500,000 visitors to the area with the Roman Sites enjoying a total of over 1.1 million visits.
