Hadrian's Wall






Spent last Saturday walking along Hadrian's wall with Alice and the student group she leads at church.  The wall was built by the Roman Empire and stretches across the width of Northern England under the rule of the emperor Hadrian.  It was built in an effort to keep out raids by the ancient inhabitants of Scotland.  After walking for about an hour and a half, we stopped at the tree that was featured in the Robin Hood movie (see pics), and then ended the walk at a quiet British pub.
