Hadrian's Wall

Hadrian's Wall from coast to coast by one of England's leading landscape photographers. Also includes other nearby places of historical, landscape or architectural interest.
Hadrian's Wall has been designated a World Heritage Site since 1987 and in 2005 was also incorporated into a wider UNESCO category, the Frontiers of the Roman Empire. It is also the basis for an 84-mile National Trail.
This book covers not only the full length of Hadrian's Wall from the Solway Firth to Wallsend on Tyneside, but also other places of historical, landscape or architectural merit to the north and south of the actual wall itself.
Derry Brabbs is regarded as one of England's finest photographers within the sphere of heritage and landscape, with over 20 illustrated books to his credit. His stunning colour photographs for the worldwide best-seller James Herriot's Yorkshire contributed to its success. He is the author of several beautifully photographed titles celebrating England's landscape and architectural legacy.
