What Newcastle looked like in the Roman times. In the 2nd century AD the Roman Empire under the direction of Hadrian established a series of fortifications along the frontier of Caledonia (Scotland), thus known as Hadrian's wall.

The town connected to the Roman settlement of Eboracum through the road known as Dere Street. | SGM: North East News
