Hadrian's Wall (Whittington; Matfen)
This stretch of Hadrian's Wall runs from the B6321 to Halton Shields. The route of the wall lies under the B6318, though the ditch can be seen to the north of the road. The course of the Roman road known as the military way, which ran along the corridor between the wall and the vallum is not known. The earthwork remains of the vallum itself, however, are visible in several places along this route. This is a Scheduled Monument protected by law.
