| Hi John, your best bet would be to post your question srtaight away.

| You might also try searching in groups.google.com on this topic there

| but if you search on Hadrians Wall [Walk} as well as
|
| Vindolanda
| Houseteads
| Segedunum
|
| These three are sites of archaelogical interest from Roman times and
| are intrinsically linked to the Roman Wall

There are very many more Aercheological sites on Hadrians wal most of which
are under the guardianship of English Heritage. Many of these sites may be
visted free of charge. Without doing the maths I would think that getting
the *visitors* deal at the first EH site you find would be worthwhile.

There is a map of HW EH sites on line but the URL escapes me, because of
the stupid EH site design. :-((((( Click around from above URL to find it.
