Cawfields Quarry is a former quarry located directly on Hadrian's Wall near Haltwhistle. Constructed in the early 20th century, the quarry cut through the Roman wall, exposing the underlying dolerite rock of the Whin Sill. This geological formation formed a natural defensive line upon which the Romans built their wall. Following the quarry's closure, the site has been redeveloped into a peaceful recreation area with a picturesque lake, picnic areas, and walking trails. The area offers direct access to Milecastle 42.

great ride past the reservoir

The highest point (255m) of Hadrian's Cycleway (HCW) is marked by a signpost. From here, you can enjoy magnificent panoramic views of the vast marsh and peatlands.

Quietly situated reservoir with rich natural beauty, built in the late 19th century as part of the drinking water system for Newcastle and Gateshead. Surrounded by woodland and bush, and popular with birdwatchers for species such as the great crested grebe, cuckoo and house martin. Ideal for a relaxing stop by the water, with views of the tranquil countryside and a touch of ecological diversity.

One of the real highlights of Hadrian's way. The view is amazing. Made the climbs feel completely worth the effort.

crag lough is a beautifull view from both directions. keep a look out for the swans having a swim

Great little spot that pops up in the landscape. Quite spectacular to look at.

This is a beautiful spot in an old quarry and the start for many a good walk. There are nice views of the quarry and nearby parts of Hadrians Wall. It is also a perfect place for picnics and has good facilities too.
