We pass milecastles, turrets, signal towers, bridge abutments, temples and even a Roman quarry with inscriptions carved by the centurions who quarried the stone for the Wall. Our walks also take in several historical sites from other ages in more gentle countryside including Thirlwall Castle and the romantic ruin of Lanercost Priory, which were built with stone plundered from the Wall. We stay at the Centre of Britain Hotel in Haltwhistle. This beautiful hotel has a fascinating history, the oldest part, dating from 1417 was a Border Reivers pele tower, later becoming a manor house, coaching inn and Excise Office. The hotel provides an excellent standard of accommodation and superb food.
All bedrooms have en-suite facilities.
