Roman Bridge remains at Willowford

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Roman Bridge remains at Willowford During Roman times, three bridges were built successively over the River Irthing to maintain continuity along Hadrian's Wall http://www.visitcumbria.com/car/willow.htm. These remains represent various stages of the abutments on the eastern side of the bridge. The river itself has migrated westwards and is a full 100 m from the bridge site. Hadrians Wall National Trail which runs 84 miles from Bowness-on-Solway to Wallsend. http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/hadrianswall/ runs immediately adjacent to the bridge remains. A new footbridge was constructed in 1999 in conjunction with the opening of the National Trail, and is the first crossing of the River Irthing at this point since Roman times.
