Quote:Housesteads has a good museum and lots of visible archaeology. (National Trust)(Paid entry) And a reasonably good filmshow. Photography allowed. mile:
Quote:There's also the Roman Army Museum to the west(Paid entry)(Carvoran.) And an excellent 3D filmshow and "legionary organization" wall-projection. It's the Roman Army Museum, after all. And the stuffed auxiliary wears melon beads. Love it! Photography allowed.
Quote:At the other end of the Wall, Birdoswald has the remains of post-Roman hall built over one of the granaries so might be worth a quick visit. (English Heritage)Slightly underwhelming, as it's just some timber posts stuck in the foundations of the granary. Small museum with stuffed archaeologist. Photography allowed. :|
Quote:If it's more convenient for you, Tullie House Museum in Carlisle is excellent, with an even more recent Roman gallery than the Great North Museum. I don't know how good it is late Roman stuff though. (Paid entry)Meh, I prefer the other museums. Peter Connolly's saddle no longer on display. Photography strictly forbidden. :x
