Talk:Redburn, Northumberland

Early history
Nearby Hadrian's Wall, the most noted Roman monument in Britain, forms the earliest recorded history of the Redburn vicinity. The extent of Hadrian's Wall was 117 kilometres, spanning the width of Britannia; the wall incorporated Agricola's Ditch and was constructed primarily to prevent harrying by small bands of raiders and unwanted immigration from the north, not as a fighting line for a major invasion.
