| Corbridge Roman Site - Corstopitum |
|
 5 miles north of Corbridge is the site of this well-known Roman camp - the
main supply depot for the armies building and guarding Hadrian's wall nearly 2000 years ago.
The substantial remains of this excavated Roman settlement include the best example of
military granaries in the country. The museum houses finds from the site, including
the famous stone fountainhead - the Lion of Corbridge, giving a fascinating insight into
Roman life. Inclusive audio tour. Tel: 01434 632349. It is well worth a visit, especially
if you intend to tour the Hadrian Wall sites.
(Tourist Information Centre will help you plan
your route or give you information on the guided tours available from Hexham.) |
