Hadrian's Wall: A Brief History
Hadrian's Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the most significant Roman monuments in Britain. Built between 122 and 128 AD during the reign of Emperor Hadrian, the wall stretched approximately 73 miles (117 km) across northern England, from the Irish Sea in the west to the North Sea in the east. Its primary purpose was to secure the Roman Empire’s northern frontier and control movement between Roman Britain and the unconquered tribes to the north.
Constructed by Roman legions, the wall was made from stone in the west and turf in the east. It stood up to 20 feet (6 meters) high in some areas and was fortified with milecastles, turrets, and forts along its length, creating a military presence every few miles.
Hadrian’s Wall not only served as a defensive barrier but also as a symbol of Roman power and civilization. Over the centuries, much of the wall has eroded or been repurposed for building materials, but sections of it remain remarkably well-preserved, offering visitors a glimpse into Roman engineering and military life.
Today, Hadrian’s Wall is one of the UK's most visited historical sites, attracting history enthusiasts and tourists alike.

What a lovely campsite and a great review ❤. Definitely on the list of " must stay" for Northumberland. What a lovely sunset too. That sauna looks interesting and what a place to go stargazing. Another great review. Thanks. ❤

[@anewlifeinthevan]

The sauna was a lovely thing to do on a cold and rainy night. We really enjoyed our stay ❤️

[@wanderinwilds]

Hi lovelies 🥰 thanks for sharing this Gem of a site !! Great campsite review !! 😍 Having doggies and seeing how they cater for them is brilliant a little welcome bag is just a fantastic idea and the treats on the counter !! The whole site looks so clean and well run and we couldn’t believe they have baths !! We have never ever seen a site with baths before that’s such a fab idea for people who bring young children as some just don’t like showers! I would definitely be like you in that Sauna, Julia I get too hot 🥵 feel like I can’t breathe !! Thank you for taking us round we’re gonna save that site into our favourites ❤ take care both 🥰😘 xxx

[@anewlifeinthevan]

Hi guys 👋 ah thanks so much for watching and supporting us as always ❤️ You're spot on about the baths for kids, just lovely to be able to give them their bedtime routine 😍 We couldn't believe how dog friendly it was, so thoughtful. Thanks for the lovely comment, lots of love to you both ❤️❤️

[@SafandAndys-MH-Adventures]

Great vlog. Sauna was a bargain and the bath . When we do our selling up and travelling it's definitely a great site to include. Loved the doggie extras ❤

[@anewlifeinthevan]

Hi Saffron 👋 it is a great place for dogs. It's not cheap but out of season it isn't bad, and you will need a place to do laundry and do services so it's a good place to think about. Thanks for watching and leaving a lovely comment as always ❤️

[@SafandAndys-MH-Adventures]

@anewlifeinthevan and a bath lol. Love a bath so would definitely need that. ♥️

[@anewlifeinthevan]

@SafandAndys-MH-Adventures I know!! Pure luxury 🤩❤️

Hi Pamela 👋 yes this one is a bonus vlog really, we filmed it in December but thought we'd put it out this week. It was so clean, which was lovely thanks for watching and leaving a really nice comment. Have a lovely week Julia and Gary ❤️

[@Con-h6u]

Pam grew up a few miles away towards Carlisle little place in the sticks called Hallbankgate, she misses the clear night skies full of stars, thanks for the memories. Gary will need to do the next review, very quiet on this one. Safe onward journey's

[@anewlifeinthevan]

Hi guys 👋 what a beautiful location and there's something so beautiful about the night sky. He was a bit quiet in this one wasn't he 😂 He's doing his own vlog in a couple of weeks when he shows people how to get a motorhome in Spanish plates, he's definitely better suited to that than me 😂 Have a great week guys, thanks for watching and supporting as always ❤️

[@paulsmith3338]

Hi both been to halt whistle doing a bit of work there’s a raf base tucked away all seemed a bit ?like the vlogs like a breath of fresh air 👍

[@anewlifeinthevan]

Hi Paul, didn't realise there was an RAF base there, it's a beautiful location. Thanks for watching and leaving a lovely comment as always, have a great week Julia and Gary 🥰

[@GailBrown-np7bb]

I assume you stayed here on your way to Scotland ? Nice to know sites suitable for stopovers to different places. We’re hoping to take caravan up that way at some point. X

[@anewlifeinthevan]

Hi Gail, yes that's right. It was a brilliant location for exploring that region so would be great with your caravan ❤️

[@callysomers919]

Hi Both, We love your vlogs. You didn’t show a disabled shower or toilet. Hopefully there is one for people with disabilities. Looks a lovely site for those with children & dogs though. Thanks

[@anewlifeinthevan]

Hi Cally, what an excellent point, I can't remember seeing one and I didn't think of it at the time, but will definitely make sure I do if we do another campsite review. Thank you for watching and leaving a lovely helpful comment. All the best Julia and Gary ❤️
