Hadrian's Wall is a Roman frontier fortification constructed during the reign of Emperor Hadrian in the second century AD, extending across northern Britain from the Solway Firth to the Tyne estuary. The section between turret 34a and milecastle 36 in wall miles 34, 35 and 36 represents a portion of this substantial stone-built barrier, which was designed to control movement across the frontier and demonstrate Roman military power. This stretch comprises elements of the wall itself, associated turrets spaced at intervals, and milecastles positioned at regular one-mile intervals, all constructed to a standardised plan with characteristic Roman engineering. The monument survives as upstanding remains and subsurface deposits that preserve evidence of Roman frontier administration, military infrastructure, and building techniques from the second and third centuries AD.
Hadrian's Wall and associated features between the boundary east of turret 34a and the field boundary west of milecastle 36 in wall miles 34, 35 and 36 is a scheduled monument protected by Historic England under reference 1010964. View the official record →
