Hadrian's Wall (toward Vircovicium)


Pertinax

a little hazy but what a glorious place! Vircovicium is behind the trees to the centre of the image-looking west toward Newcastle.

This is the "picture postcard " shot of the wall , as a child when I saw this view open up before me I leapt back to 130AD and left a part of my soul there.

Oh ,scale -I forgot the wall section here is about 6 feet high-about half its original height.As FVC points out two distant sheep give some idea of scale.

This is exactly the same place as the shot I use as my back ground was taken, i mean, EXACTLY THE SAME, its uncanny... scary even... this is freaking me out.

Sextus you are not alone ,Favonius contacted me along similar lines!
