What lush landscapes. The age of Hadrian’s Wall still amazes me. I don’t think I quite realized how large the forts were…and to still be standing (somewhat). Incredible.
Spot on as always, Gents! This American with a heart for all things UK is truly captivated by your videos❤and such a wonderful and anticipated addition to my weekends!
Thanks, gents, for this well-written video. So much natural beauty and history in this area. And thanks as well for the tips - it's nice to save a few quid on parking to then spend on a nice meal. Cheers!
Pleasant video with Beautiful green landscapes, I loved birds chirping ❤ so cool & enjoyable views. I admire your choice of destinations & always wait for more fascinating videos.😊
Fantastic thanks. Think that water would have been beautiful if you had sunshine and blue skies. Was really happy to see Hadrian’s wall, always wanted to. The whole area was truly wonderful. Thanks for taking me along. Please take care
A wonderful report. So interesting and informative. No silly music. Lovely birds and commentary. I want to visit all the places you have been to. Thank you.
The video was wonderful. The poor weather actually enhanced the views of the Roman ruins, it made them more romantic and a bit forlorn. Thanks for getting out in that wet weather for us.
Amazing! Excellent filming & footage of such beautiful scenery & fascinating historical Sites!! Along with an excellent Commentary filled with very interesting historical information & facts. Thank you for sharing this marvelous adventure allowing us to truly "Step into the Sandals of a Roman Soldier!" LOL. Blessings to you both!
Although I know of the area from school history lessons but I had no idea what extensive building work they undertook in order to protect their territory from "those Picts " the other side of the wall. The weather makes you realise how awful it must have been for those Roman soldiers stationed there far far away from their warm and sunny Italy. Makes one feel almost sorry for them. Another fascinating video and already I'm looking forward to next week's.
I thoroughly enjoyed finding out more about Hadrian's Wall! Have heard it mentioned over the years but this was a wonderful deeper dive into the history and structures and even with the inclement weather, as always, the scenery was yumming and your narrative was very interesting and entertaining as well. Thanks so much gentlemen for sharing this with us!
Yes there certainly is some lovely scenery in that part. The moody weather did give a dramatic feel. Whilst very cloudy it was at least dryish that day.
Another very good video on your channel. I have never found such a good travel video about Hadrian's Wall on RUclips. I like the camera work and how the story is told. Thank you for that. Greetings from Germany
Professional, succinct, varied in it's scope and purpose, and helpful to anyone thinking of a travel around these lands. Thank you, again. Always know I can relax watching your videos.
Im learning so much history from you two. I hadnt realised just how big Hadrians wall was. I was quite intrigued by the strange arrows on the road till I saw the " drive on the left" sign in the windscreen. 😳 I forget that a lot of countries drive on, I was going to say wrong side of the road lol which no doubt would have got floods of comments, so I will amend that to drive on the right. I have friends who often drive in America which they said was quite tricky at first. Looking forward to the next video and hopefully you will have had nicer weather, you certainly seem to have had an awful lot of rain over there this year. Cheers Cheryl
In all my years driving a hire car that is the first time I’ve seen it as a sticker on the window. Some people certainly need the reminder. Very easy to forget. The weather did improve for the last few days I think that was the last grey day we had. Apart from the odd quick shower it was sunny.
Hi really sorry you had such trashy weather during your trip-I've always found Kielder Forest a bit sterile-good for water sports like kite surfing and etc I believe though-also when its hot weather there are nasty bitey flies but the moorland is lovely and hadrians wall is always worth the trip
I think it’s par for the course in that part of the country more wet days that dry in Northumberland and Yorkshire. We managed and the last few days coming up now in the videos were sunnier 😊
The weather didn't look great for you, but the food at the Pheasant Inn looked very tasty. Good thing we were eating lunch while watching,😂. For sure, waterproof hiking shoes looked necessary.
Parking tickets are valid for all the car parks along keider water for the day. Or per hour if you wish. Also its wet most the time thats why they chose the location...
I had to laugh because of the sticker on the car ,"Drive on the left". Unfortunately, I think it would really help me! Why is there lace work on the seating area to view the stars? Seems kinda of a shame. Ruined finery, like we would say in the south.
How rude to charge 2 pounds for a view of Kielder water when because of tree growth there is very little you can view so I wouldn't have paid either. I wouldn't have paid at the tourist information place either just to use the loo. With the onsite cafe shut why didn't they contract a coffee caravan to make it worth stopping. My mum and dad went to Hadrian's wall in 2000 on their first visit back to the UK since 1959. How high was the wall in Roman times and I couldn't help but think of the Python movie Life of Brian where they say a long list of Roman achievements and then say "but what have the Roman's ever done for us!" As for the Gibbet English history in England is one of violence where those who did the wrong thing could expect a lethal fate and went from poor people right up to nobility. The gates you walked through were Kissing Gates but obviously the don't work for you.

Looks like a beautiful part of the world. Greetings from Australia.
Thank you Simon and Will. Excellent video!
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching 👍😊
Thanks for your honesty about the non viewpoint!!
Beautiful thankyou
We were at Symamore Gap in early September. 2 weeks before the tree was felled. We were very sad about it!😔...but it is a very beautiful area!😃
Glad you got to see it, such a shame and a waste.
Beautiful
Wonderful place
Fascinating

Hello there
Please take us to the island of Roan Anish
Wow 😳 nice place
Parking tickets are valid for all the car parks along keider water for the day. Or per hour if you wish. Also its wet most the time thats why they chose the location...
The muddy ground certainly showed how much rain it gets,

It’s “Housesteads” not Homesteads in the text caption.

The gates you walked through were Kissing Gates but obviously the don't work for you.
great
