Address:
Hare Hill, Brampton, Cumbria, CA8 2JJ
Hare Hill in Cumbria is the tallest remaining stretch of Hadrian's Wall, standing up to three metres high. It probably survived because it was later built into the wall of a medieval structure. In the 19th century it was substantially rebuilt, using Roman masonry which was probably retrieved from the surrounding area.
