    The Roman Antonine Wall was the northern frontier barrier of the Roman Empire. The Wall was a turf fortification built from the Firth of Forth to the Firth of Clyde between AD 142 and AD 154. The Antonine Wall was 39 miles long, had a height of 10 feet and possessed a 12 feet deep ditch on its northern side for extra security.

    After nearly 1900 years of weathering, the section of the Antonine Wall near to Bonnybridge is remarkably well-preserved and is worth visiting. The remains of the Wall’s deep ditch that ran east-west are especially clear.
