The protection that Emperor Hadrian built in Northern England against the barbarians is still very visible and the most prominent, and impressive, reminder of Roman presence in Britain.
During Emperor Hadrian's rule, the Roman Empire was under threat from various sides. When Hadrian visited Britannia province in 122, he ordered a wall built, spanning the entire width of the island. Six years later, his soldiers had finished the task of building a wall through sometimes rugged terrain, over rivers, crests of hills, always seeking the shortest way. The wall was 80 Roman miles long, a little over 73 miles or 117km; it had a vallum or ditch as an additional obstacle. Every Roman mile, there was a small castle, and each third mile, a turret. In total, some 10,000 Roman soldiers defended this border of the Roman empire against the Pictish tribes in the north. The wall was abandoned in the early 5th century when the Romans withdrew from Britannia.
