Great little museum with a large area of the wall that kids of all ages are allowed to explore and climb all over. Well worth an hour's visit!
Visited 23rd March. Not too busy. Much more than I was expecting! Lovely museum and timeline of Corbridge. Loads of interesting artefacts. Great audio machine. No signs saying 'don't do this' or ' don't go here'. Dogs welcome. Staff are charming and helpful. Good parking but also only about a 15 minutes, pleasant walk from the town centre. English Heritage at its best.
Well worth a visit - some fantastic statues and other finds in the small museum and the site itself is very interesting.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
This was a good experience to see the amazing roman ruins - technology and such that was way advanced in the ages. What we really enjoyed was the audio guide that discussed what and where everything was; I don't think the experience would have been as good otherwise. The only downside was that I planned this trip to see Hadrian's Wall as based on the name of the site and within the first 2 minutes of the audio guide, it states that the wall is 1.5 miles away...not here. The staff here are great, and they pointed us in the direction of the next few places we needed to add to our itinerary to see what we drove 6 hours to see ...Housesteads Roman Fort the wall is here. In all, still a great experience and I highly recommend visiting.
Step back in time and walk the same streets the Romans did. Stroll through what remains of the buildings and you really do get a sense of what their lives were like. Great exhibits on display including costumes and interactive displays.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Really interesting to imagine the life of the town alongside the fort. The museum is small but has some very interesting items, many which were found at the site. There are a lot of well defined ruins where you can see the shapes of the buildings and the different features e.g. what used to be a fountain, the granary floor, quenching tub in a workshop, strong room, barracks, drainage etc. The information boards outside are well placed to point out these features but are at thigh level which isn't great if your eyes are bad, though we were offered an audio guide on entry. Can't see the pictures on that though! I'm thinking it would be a good level for visitors in a wheelchair but I don't know how you'd get across the stony ground to read them!
English heritage site. Absolutely brilliant. Wish we'd had more time Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Essential site viewing with extensive information. Free walking tours as well so you don’t miss out on key information.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Wow what an amazing place. Just like Vindolanda you are greeted with an excavated site of what was a key and strategic Roman village. This is an English Heritage site and it cost my fiancé and I £10 each to get in. There’s a great museum in here as well and a little gift shop too. Please bear in mind if you have mobility issues there is a little path that goes around the site, but going through the centre of the site is not recommended as it’s covered with a lot of rocks and pebbles. Good amount of information on boards spaced around the area too. Toilets available here as well. Really friendly staff here. Highly recommended.
My kids love this place. The visitor centre is fantasic, with loads of activities and finds of artefacts that have been found in the area, dating back to the Roman occupation here. The grounds of the village are fascinating, with an audio terminal that you can carry. You can go to certain points, and it gives an audio description of what you're looking at. Or you could just read the very informative signposts that accompany. The kids always love to play hide and seek and really like exploring the various areas of the village, even making up a house in a Roman house where they were making tea and playing great.
