Looking east from Milecastle 40 at sunset, Hadrian’s Wall runs over Highshield and Hotbank crags in the distance. The north ditch of the wall abruptly ends as the cliffs begin under Winshield Crags making the ditch unnecessary #hadrianswall #HadriansWallPath

The wall was built to protect and defend the Roman territory of “Britannia”.
It’s proving useful to a new generation now, with much appreciated shade from the sunshine!

We saw so many lovely flowers beside the path on our walk last week.
In other circumstances, some of them would be considered to be weeds.
It’s all about context, I suppose?

We saw lots of interesting things on our walk last week.
This statue at Scotswood (outside Newcastle) caught our attention. It’s called “Yesterday, Today, Forever” and is in memory of a pit disaster.

Some very fine baths there! All very civilised (unless you were the slave stoking the fires, perhaps..)

We started walking last Sunday at Wallsend, in Newcastle. (The clue’s in the name!)
Today we return home from near Bowness on Solway. We’ll get the train from Carlisle.
Coast to coast, meeting lots of lovely people along the way!
