We are following Hadrians Wall - an amazing fortified wall which stretches from one side of England to the other. Corbridge is the biggest Roman town along the wall, with large graneries and barracks. The onsite museum has a wonderful collection of artefacts, although some of the finds now reside in the British Museum in London. This is an enamelled open work wheel brooch, which shows the level of detailed work that the old craftsmen were capable of.
