Thankyou for the email Ian, I've enjoyed looking at your images of Hadrian's Wall.
I see you met my friend Stuart, he's another accomplished photographer normally scooping up all the photography first place slots in the local agricultural show.
Are you coming back up to this area any time soon?

Wonderful historic photos, here we'll demolish beautiful old buildings to create more parking spaces. Example near home: the Roosevelt Hotel in Jacksonville , Florida.
Sharon Rogers29-May-2009 20:55
I love the area, the wide open spaces ... there is so much atmosphere there too. I enjoyed wandering through your gallery and seeing it again. Thanks for your kind comments too.
John Cooper21-Feb-2009 01:28
Ian,
Given the amount of Roman soldiers, the time spent and the amount of bricks used.
They only managed to lay two bricks per man per hour.
I was given that information many years ago by someone in the building trade who obviously was not impressed by the Romans.
Can you give me the correct facts regarding their brickie abilities.

Nice Gallery Ian, pleased to see you sothern folk wander past Durham city. Its a great place, just a little cold for some :-)

Great gallery, and I also appreciate the commentary. Thank you for the history lesson!
Dave Beedon17-Dec-2006 21:25
That this historical construction exists today---not completely dismantled or plowed under---is testimony to an appreciation for history that is often lacking in my country.

And voted. Great to have the interesting commentary on these photos.
