Historic Hexham Abbey and Hadrian's Wall

Get ready to step back in time and into England's history with a visit to Hexham Abbey and Hardrian's Wall.  Take in the peaceful atmosphere, ancient architectural treasures and beautiful stained glass of the Abbey, combined with the Roman Fort of Corbridge and Hadrian's Wall.  Not all the sites on Hadrian's Wall were heavily guarded fortresses.  Corbridge was once a bustling town and remained a vibrant community right up until the end of Roman Britain in the early years.  Today, you can still walk through the town's streets and experience a time-capsule of Roman life.  The cathedral city of Durham is an historical treasure trove, too - castles nestle in riversides, parks thrive with deer and the museums radiate with industrial heritage, we think the best way to help you discover this beautiful thousand-year-old city is with a guided walking tour.
