Reviews of Milecastle 37 - Hadrian's Wall

S. N.

Lovely walk here from Housestead’s visitor centre!

A. D.

Milestone 37 is the exact location that all the professional photographers flock to to get their perfect picture of Hadrian’s Wall meandering over the hills.

M. K.

Great history - taking the free walking tour. The staff are so knowledgeable and pointed out everything, plus showed us where we could walk on the Wall itself. Fabulous!

J. S.

The wall itself is meh, but the history regarding the wall, and how long it is both ways. I reccomend an excursion and having a good guide with you.

E. R.

Was shutting when I got there around 5pm, but looked huge if you like the idea of understanding how Roman soldiers lived.

G. a. N.

This is a historical landmark that is a nice day tour away from Edinburgh and will take you to the Borderlands.

S. W.

Great place to have lunch and to watch sheep.

T. E.

It's a beautiful place

Google maps seems to think the location is about 100 yds away from the car park - it isn't! Number plate recognition parking - pay on exit. Toilets. National Trust & English Heritage members enter for free but all pay to park (£3 / 3 hours + £2 / hour thereafter). Museum, ruins of Roman fort / village on hillside / hilltop about 300m from car park. Short walk along the top of Hadrian's wall. More extensive walks on footpaths by the wall and surrounding areas. Stunning views. Well worth a visit.

Great place to walk. Atmospheric.

Nice to see the remains of a Roman arch at the Fort's gate. It is also interesting as you can see the the gate would be very difficult to use because of the terrain. However, when the Romans said they would build a fort every Roman mile along the wall then that is exactly what they did!

N. R.

Fantastic walk for all the family

It's old, but you get a sense of history, hard to belove it is 1500 years old, we can't build houses that last a tenth of that now!

S. B.

We had proper British summer weather, rain! Beautiful and evocative scenery.

C. S.

Beautiful easy walk. Panoramic vistas filled with history.

It was frikin' built by the Romans 1800 years ago! Worth the walk from Housesteads.

P. T.

Great place to visit and to walk around.

Just a little bit west of Housesteads, the ruins of one of the Milecastles which would have housed 30 Centurians

(Translated) Probably the best stretch of the entire Vallo. Continuing after the remains of the Housestead fort, perhaps with the good fortune (in this case just luck) of having a bit of mist to make the horizon darker, is an incredibly evocative experience. The surrounding landscape combined with the feeling of being on the edge of the Empire give a feeling of unique solemnity to the ruins. At moments you look north, in the fog, over the precipice of the hill, and you feel the expectation that the Roman lookouts probably felt fearing the arrival of the barbarians. Spectacular ~ (Original) Probabilmente il miglior tratto dell'intero Vallo. Proseguire dopo i resti del forte di Housestead, magari con la fortuna (in questo caso proprio fortuna) di avere un po' di bruma a rendere più tenebroso l'orizzonte, è un'esperienza incredibilmente evocativa. Il panorama intorno unito alla sensazione di essere ai confini dell'Impero danno una sensazione di solennità unica alle rovine. A momenti si guarda a Nord, nella nebbia, sopra lo strapiombo della collina, e si sente l'attesa che le vedette romane probabilmente provavano temendo l'arrivo dei barbari. Spettacolare~

(Translated) Here is a particularly well-preserved section of Hadrian's Wall, with suggestive ruins of a military settlement. Very pleasant for walking and trekking in a fascinating landscape ... (Original) Qui si trova un tratto particolarmente ben conservato del Muro di Adriano, con suggestive rovine di un insediamento militare. Molto gradevole per passeggiate e trekking in un paesaggio affascinante...

m. p.

(Translated) They are places full of charm and history that shines through everywhere, in the Roman ruins and in the pride of the people who live there. (Original) Sono luoghi ricchi di fascino e di storia che traspare ovunque, nelle rovine romane e nell'orgoglio delle persone che li abitano.

A. J.

Toller Ort! Hat uns sehr gut gefallen, auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert! (Translated) Nice place! We really enjoyed it, definitely worth a visit!

E. N.

(Translated) Nice information center with the history of this wall. Never knew there was a link with Friesland. (Original) Mooi informatie centrum met de geschiedenis van deze muur. Nooit geweten dat er een link met Friesland is.
