NS8479 : Roman Fort and the Antonine Wall

near to High Bonnybridge, Falkirk, Great Britain

Roman Fort and the Antonine Wall
Roman Fort and the Antonine Wall
The ditch, clearly seen in a lighter shade of green, marks the course of the Antonine Wall - the most north westerly frontier achieved by the Roman Empire. I believe it was only in use for little over 20 years. To the right are ridges and mounds that indicate the position of the Roman Fort at Rough Castle - the whole scene reminds me of a golf course.
