worth it. We also gave an offering to Mithras at his temple when we
passed by and was rewarded with a day of sunshine! We also visited Housesteads Fort which was quite a place and sat for a break at Sycamore Gap which is where they filmed the meeting of Kevin Kostner and Morgan Freeman in Robin Hood Prince of Thieves. Due to the steep drops from the crags there was no ditch built along a large stretch of this part of the walk. It is quite amusing as you pass some of the mile castles in this section as it would have been impossible to pass through the northern gateways due to the sheer drops on the other side, it seems a mile castle was built every Roman mile, whether it was appropriate or not!
Mitras's Temple..thank you Mithras!
Milecastle Number 37
Sycamore Gap, no sign of Robin Hood!!
