A bit of Hadrians Wall :o)

I left Hexham at 1pm to go in search of Hadrians Wall. Over the bridge and join the A69 for a mile or so, then turn right onto the A6079. A couple of miles up there and you get to the B6318, this runs alongside the Wall for many miles. 

I looked for a brown tourist sign and pulled into a car park, and found there was a charge for parking and another charge to look at some ruins. Nope, don't want to do that. I drove for another few miles and pulled in again at another car park. This looks promising. The machine would not accept cash for a parking ticket, card only. There was a visitor centre, English Heritage owns it, and there was a charge to go through to see the ruins of an ancient building. 

I spoke to the person who was promoting English Heritage membership. Said I only want to have a walk along the Wall. He made the very helpful suggestion to drive a couple of miles further on and look for the car park at steel Rigg. I did that and found a machine that would take my coins, £4 for three hours.  

It was hard to make a video because of the wind, so my apologies that it is short. The path is very well marked, off I went for a walk. 

There is the Wall, can you see a small red dot, the jacket of someone walking up the steps. 

I am heading over there. 

On the top of the first of many hills looking down. The Wall is very wide. 

On the top of the second hill looking down at where I have come from. Now getting some lovely views. 

Heading over there to the small lake. 

Let's have a closer look. I am grateful for the sit down on the Wall to rest my legs. 

I went further along there until my legs felt wobbly. It got steeper and so I turned back because I didn't think it was a good idea to risk stumbling on the uneven rocky path. I took the low level walk back to the car. 

The sheep are used to people trekking through their territory. 

I was a bit cold when I got back to the car. First things first, let's have a mug of hot minestrone soup to warm up. It was surprisingly delicious, thank you Aldi. 

Time to move on. I had seen the iconic Sycamore Gap Tree from the road, so I went back to photograph it. You know how I love trees. It was in the 1991 Robin Hood film, Prince of Thieves. Check out Wiki for more information.

 

Time for breakfast, I have things to do today. We will catch up later. Where did I go next? On the road again. Where did I sleep that night? At this point my plans changed. 

Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip.   ilona
