    On the opposite bank of Chesters Roman Fort are the crumbling remains of a Roman bridge across the River Tyne. This once glorious and architecturally-beautiful bridge is one of the most remarkable survivals on Hadrian's Wall and is in the care of English Heritage.

      Graet palce to admire just how good the Romans were at engineering and building, how did they manage to move and carve such heavy boulders?

        Look out for the large phallus - symbol of Roman prosperity!
