Hadrian's Wall is NOT an approximation of the Anglo Scottish border. Atr the eastern end there are 60 miles of England N of the Wall.
'''Hadrian's Wall''' was a wall built by the Romans across the centre of Britain in the 2nd century CE, to defend their northern frontier from [[Picts|Pictish]] incursions.
It stretched across northern England from [[Wallsend]] in the east to [[Bowness on Solway]] in the west, separating (approximately) England from Scotland, which was never conquered by and formed the northern boundary of the RomansRoman Empire, though a subsequent temporary northward advance took them as far as the [[Antonine Wall]].
After the fall of the [[Roman Empire]], much of the stone from the wall was taken and reused building local [[churches]] and abbeys, not to mention housing and farmsteads. All that remains of the wall are small sections which constitute something of a tourist attraction.
