  • Roman Britain

    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 .

Later in the summer we look forward to Bishop Frank coming to hold a Deanery Confirmation at St Mungo’s Simonburn on the morning of Sunday 27th July. These two visits, for rather different purposes, will both be important occasions, each reminding us of the nature of the Church of England. The tradition of our Church, since Anglo Saxon times, has been to encourage a fairly independently spirited clergy to minister, in co-operation with local people, in distinct geographical areas. Over the years that system has shown both strengths and weaknesses, and the degree to which it has been successful is known only to God! Every ‘system’ involving human beings needs its ‘checks and balances’. At their worst, both clergy and parishioners can become remarkably insular in their outlook, and can come to overly treasure ‘their’ way of doing things. Our Bishops exercise their ministry to remind us that we are part of something bigger and more dynamic than a village club or a gathering of the like-minded.

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.

  • Pennine Journey Development Plan

    Pennine Journey Development Plan

    Pennine Journey Development Plan Pennine Journey Development Plan and Supporters Page 1 Background The Pennine Journey is a new long-distance footpath covering 247 miles and is based on “A Pennine Journey – The Story of a Long Walk in 1938” by Alfred Wainwright. In September 1938 he undertook a 210 mile walk from Settle to Hadrian’s Wall and wrote a narrative description of his walk in the months immediately following. This was shown to several colleagues in Blackburn Town Hall, where he then worked as a clerk, and put in a drawer for nearly a further 50 years. When he became more widely known through his pictorial guides to the Lakeland Fells and other wrings as well as TV appearances he showed it to his then editor and, unaltered, in 1989 it was published. In 1998 David & Heather Pitt devised and walked a route, using maps and guide books of the area, which would take in as many of the places AW mentioned in his book as reasonably possible, using public rights of way and not the roads that he used in 1938 – a route that AW might have chosen if he was planning it today. Soon after the formation of the Wainwright Society in 2004 it was decided that the development of the route as a major long-distance footpath as a tribute to Alfred Wainwright would be an ideal, initial project for the Society. Members volunteered to walk and then test walk the 18 stages; Ron Scholes, a friend of Wainwright, offered to do detailed route maps; and Colin Bywater offered to provide black and white sketches.
