This gallery houses a permanent exhibition entitled The Roman Frontier: stories beyond Hadrian's Wall, with exhibits excavated along the Wall and others on loan from the British Museum. Hadrian's Wall was built 73 miles across Britannia, now England, 122-128 AD, under the reign of Emperor Hadrian, ruled 117-138, to mark the Northern extent of the Roman Empire and guard against barbarian attacks from the Picts to the North. The wall was fortified with milecastles with 2 turrets in between, and a fort about every 5 Roman miles. Picture by Manuel Cohen
