Built almost 2000 years ago to house a Roman army garrison guarding the nearby bridge across the River Tyne, Chesters Roman Fort is one of the most impressive visitor attractions in the North East. Part of Hadrian’s Wall. It’s also the best preserved Roman cavalry fort in Britain.
You can easily see what life would have been like here at the Empire’s northern outpost as you wander the officers' quarters and explore the well-preserved baths and steam room.
Completing the picture there’s also an amazing collection of Roman items found during the excavation of the wall. For a fun and informative family day out in Northumberland, Chesters Roman Fort has everything you need.
