After a long day's trudge away from Newcastle, I finally start to descend towards Chollerford in the North Tyne valley.
The Wall finally makes its reappearance via a wonderful stretch in a field at Planetrees where the transition from 'broad' Wall to 'narrow' Wall on 'broad' Wall foundations can be seen.
From there, it's only a half hour or so walk down to Chollerford and the Roman cavalry fort of Chesters, build to guard the rover crossing.
