A bit more of this weeks break . Today we did a visit to Housesteads fort and a walk west to Cawfields and mile castle 42 .
We arrived for opening time at Housesteads and had it to ourselves pretty much while we explored . It follows the layout of standard Roman fort. I felt I could almost be there in terms of the historical imagining .
 |
| Could not help but touch history . |
 |
| It’s no wonder it’s a world heritage site . |
 |
| The wall east ending eastward from the end of the North face of the fort |
 |
| The grain stores |
 |
| The latrines |
We moved further west along the wall to Cawfields and mile castle 42 . The was along the escarpment of Great Whinn Sill.
A great explore and walk has had . Followed by a lunch at the Milecastle Inn . Great pie was had .
I may have to pick up some Romans after this…
