Vindolanda
A Journey Through Time on the Edge of Hadrian’s Wall
Nestled near Hexham, Northumberland, just south of Hadrian’s Wall, Vindolanda offers a unique glimpse into Roman Britain, distinct from other sites along the Wall. Situated on the historic Stanegate Road, this ancient fort and village were occupied for over 300 years, serving as a crucial frontier settlement even before Hadrian’s Wall was built. Visitors travelling along the Stanegate can explore the remains of nine successive forts, where generations of Roman soldiers and their families lived. Vindolanda stands as a testament to centuries of history, inviting everyone to delve into its rich archaeological heritage.
