Yorkshire

We headed north on a Friday, stopping at the market in Stamford (a personal favourite), then through the beautiful Yorkshire Dales to 'the Angel of the North' in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. 
We stayed overnight in Newcastle, then visited a portion of Hadrian's Wall and a fantastic Roman museum before departing for Scotland.


Roman Bath House - any guesses what room this is? The Romans were a very public people!


Hadrian's Wall - the original foundation.  Built to keep out 'the barbarians to the north' of England.  A full-size replica of the original was also on-site (pictured on the left).
