Stone Dispersal

Where was the rock that was used to build Hadrian’s Wall from?

What type of stone was used?

Why isn’t Hadrian’s Wall a complete monument today? Where has it gone?

These are the questions that will be answered in the Stone Sourcing and Dispersal strand of the project.

We will explore known and suspected Roman quarries, examine the Wall, and identify reused fabric from the Wall at sites and settlements throughout the World Heritage Site.
