Wall, Northumberland

united kingdom

Wall sits on the B6318 Military Road in Northumberland, about 5km northwest of Hexham and directly on Hadrian's Wall. Motorists typically arrive via the A69 from Newcastle (35km) or Carlisle, then follow local roads north. The village serves as a key stop along the historic B6318 route that follows the wall from coast to coast. Wall houses the Roman Museum and the remarkably preserved Mithraic temple at Brocolitia fort.
