Newcastle (Pons Aelius) Bridge, Vallum and Fort (info needed
Hi Yuri it's Brian I think you may have raised an interesting point on just how the soldiers would have been able to go through the Wall. It had to be such at all forts otherwise the fort would mean absoloutely nothing, for there is not a fort anywhere on Hadrians' Wall that is not attached to it in some way.The best form of defence is attack so if you can't go through the Wall, how in Hell can you defend the Pons Aelius.
