About

2000 years ago, Hadrian’s Wall was a frontier, a place where two cultures collided. Your guide will weave a narrative from the Roman and the native perspective.

The Northumberland National Park makes a magnificent backdrop. Your guide will make visible a wealth of archaeology, helping you discover a landscape with multiple layers.
