The end of the wall is in Wallsend. The end of the HCW is at the Arbeia Roman Fort in South Shields, at the mouth of the River Tyne. So this arch honors Hadrian's Cycleway, but it's not the beginning. Of course, you can reverse the beginning and end, but the HCW is actually ridden from west to east.
