The soldiers protecting the northern side of the Roman Empire lived in forts right on Hadrian's Wall; the best preserved is Housestead or Vercovicium.
Entrance to the grounds of Housesteads Roman Fort, as Vercovicium is called now, is through a very small museum, basically one room behind the ticket counter and souvenir shop. It has some good pictures of the area from the sky, allowing the visitor to leave with an idea of the outline of what she or he will see shortly. It was about to rain when I opened the wooden fence door. Dark clouds gathered from all directions, floating low above the open landscape that lay ahead of me. As I followed the outer wall of the fort, towards the southern gate, I wondered how the Romans must have liked the climate in their Britannia province.
