His work built upon that of Henry Stedman who wrote the first four editions of this book. DANIEL MCCROHAN is a widely pub- lished travel writer with a passion for hiking and a penchant for ancient walls. For more than a decade he lived in Beijing, under the shadow of the Great Wall of China, another breathtaking bastion which he has hiked much of the way along, and written about for numerous publica- tions, including Lonely Planet. Back in the UK, he jumped at the chance to size up Britain’s very own great wall – and brought his family along for the ride. With their nephew and two friends from Beijing they all descended on Newcastle one sunny summer’s day and hiked and camped their way along the entire route. Eight days later they concluded that Hadrian’s Wall was in pretty good nick considering it was more than a thousand years older than its Ming- Dynasty counterpart in China – but were thankful it wasn’t quite as long. This is Daniel’s third Trailblazer guide – and his 32nd guidebook in total. You can keep track of his travels at : danielmccrohan.com or on Twitter (@danielmccrohan). To listen to a podcast about Daniel hiking Hadrian’s Wall, go to : www.traveltapethepodcast.com. Born in Chatham, Kent, HENRY STEDMAN has been writing guidebooks for 20 years now and is the author or co-author of over half a dozen Trailblazer titles including Kilimanjaro, Coast to Coast Path, Dales Way and all three books in the South-West Coast Path series. On most walks he’s accompanied by Daisy. Two parts trouble to one part Parson’s Jack Russell, Daisy has now com- pleted Hadrian’s Wall Path, Coast to Coast, Dales Way, Offa’s Dyke and the entire South-West Coast Path. When not travelling or writing, Henry lives in Battle, maintaining his Kilimanjaro website and arranging climbs on the mountain through his company, Climb Mount Kilimanjaro.

  • Roman Britain
    Roman Britain Hadrian s Wall - History Vallum Hadriani - Historia “ Having completely transformed the soldiers, in royal fashion, he made for Britain, where he set right many things and - the rst to do so - drew a wall along a length of eighty miles to separate barbarians and Romans. (The Augustan History, Hadrian 11.1)” Although we have much epigraphic evidence from the Wall itself, the sole classical literary reference for Hadrian having built the Wall is the passage above, wrien by Aelius Spartianus towards the end of the 3rd century AD. The original concept of a continuous barrier across the Tyne-Solway isthmus, was devised by emperor Hadrian during his visit to Britain in 122AD. His visit had been prompted by the threat of renewed unrest with the Brigantes tribe of northern Britain, and the need was seen to separate this war-like race from the lowland tribes of Scotland, with whom they had allied against Rome during recent troubles. Components of The Wall Hadrian s Wall was a composite military barrier which, in its nal form, comprised six separate elements; 1. A stone wall fronted by a V-shaped ditch. 2. A number of purpose-built stone garrison forti cations; Forts, Milecastles and Turrets. 3. A large earthwork and ditch, built parallel with and to the south of the Wall, known as the Vallum. 4. A metalled road linking the garrison forts, the Roman Military Way . 5. A number of outpost forts built to the north of the Wall and linked to it by road. 6. A series of forts and lookout towers along the Cumbrian coast, the Western Sea Defences .

Hadrian’s Wall Management Plan July 1996 OVERVIEW Hadrian's Wall, started by the Emperor Hadrian in AD 122, is an historic and cultural phenomenon of international significance. A treasured national landmark, it is the most important monument left behind by the Romans during their occupation of Britain. It is also the best known and best preserved frontier within the whole Roman world. From the Wall, its northernmost boundary, the Roman Empire stretched 1,500 miles south to the deserts of the Sahara, and 2,500 miles east to what is present-day Iraq. The Wall stands today as a reminder of such past glories. A symbol of power, it remains an awe-inspiring testament to Roman mastery of the ancient world.
