Visit Heddon-on-the-Wall and the surrounding villages and stay in bed & breakfast accommodation:
Heddon-on-the-Wall, Northumberland. A splendid fragment of Hadrian's Wall can be seen alongside the road 7 miles from Newcastle and just below this hilltop village. The visible portion, 100 yds long and from four to seven courses high, is more than 10 ft wide. From high ground above the wall it is possible to see the defensive ditch and vallum which completed the wall complex. The village is where a mile-castle stood. In 1796 the government allotted cottages built for the miners of Heddon colliery, but never used by them, to refugee French royalist priests; this was the origin of their name, Frenchman's Row. The priests left in 1802. Crowning the hill is St Andrew's Church with several traces of its Anglo-Saxon origins in the fabric. That first church was rebuilt in early Norman times and altered again in subsequent centuries. A good deal of the Roman wall went into the church building.
