  • 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.
