Official Website of Hadrian's Wall Country
A virtual gateway to Hadrian's Wall Country, including plan your visit, roman site details and a visual gallery.
Welcome to Hadrian’s Wall Country. Britain’s greatest Roman monument, Hadrian’s Wall World Heritage Site runs
for 150 miles from Arbeia at South Shields to Ravenglass on the Cumbrian coast. There were once over 30 forts
on the Roman frontier, including the original 16 on the line of the Wall, along with Milecastles, turrets,
a ditch to the north and great Vallum earthwork to the south. Today you can visit a string of amazing forts
and museums that stretch across the north of England, with the Wall itself visible at some major sites
(such as Birdoswald) and at many other places in-between.
