Denton Hall Turret - Hadrian's Wall
 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
The foundations of this turret and a 65-metre length of Hadrian's Wall lie immediately beside the A69. Built of unusually large stones, the turret has a platform in one corner which probably served as the base for a ladder to reach the upper floors. Before You Go Parking: On street parking is available at the site. Plan a Great Day Out 16 miles west of Benwell is the beautiful village of Corbridge. Here you will find Corbridge Roman Fort, where you can marvel at a remarkable hoard of objects found during excavations, including Roman armour and trinkets. You can walk down a Roman high street and imagine soldiers stopping here to stock up on supplies before reaching the most northerly outpost on the Roman Empire. Try following the Corbridge Trail, which takes in our Roman highlights in the area. Opening Times 30 April 2017 - 24 March 2018 Open any reasonable time during daylight hours 25 March 2018 onwards Opening times will be available nearer the time | |||||||||||||||||||||||
