I live very near Hadrian's wall and i never tire of seeing it. Part of local heritage it staggers me how it was built in such a short time. The romans gave us an amazing road system too.
It's amazing how this narrow ribbon across the land, whether visible or not.....represents a corridor of the ages. Hey Jules~ I'm a Yankee that lives nears Seattle. In the mid 90's, I was privileged to spend a couple of months in the UK testing wind tunnel model aircraft at Farnborough. I fell in love with your country's history, landscapes & society and explored them at every opportunity. A brief visit to a section of Hadrian's Wall left me awestruck at how time has shaped your culture. From the insights you offer in narration, to the incidental music that evokes the wall's profoundness in history, this is a moving production! Thank you, sincerely, for the great effort you've expended in it's creation~
This was a beautifully done video. I really enjoyed it. Even though it was lovely spring/summer weather I can't help but feel sorry for the poor troops stationed there in the winter! Regards from Canada 🇨🇦 Thank you!
Thank you very much, for this very beautiful and insightful documentary. It probably took a lot of hard work, time and thought. I love your narration, too. Just the right amount, at the right time and written very well. The Romans although talked about much, are never truly hailed for their achievements. Like some of the aqueducts having a grade of a few centimeters, over a kilometer or more sometimes.
outstanding to watch sir absolutely spotless from start to finish i live right on the doorstep of arbeia in south shields i think the old roman cemetery is under my flat
Impressive! Would be good to see a flyover of the Antonine wall! Might be a bit more tricky finding the route, but would no doubt be more amazing scenery!
This video is brilliant! Way too few views for the time and effort it must have taken to put this together! ..and well done for going east to west... the better way to do Hadrian's Wall... 😊
Gilsland starts just after the 1 hour mark [Milecastle 48] Lanercost is reached at around 1hour 12 minutes in although the path of the Wall passes some distance north
I know times change but I find it disgusting that there are houses built over parts of the wall and others have just gone and now fields there, roads going over it etc. it should have some kind of coverage/protection on it being so old. Roads should go over it as bridges and houses should be so far away from it, it’s a massive part of history.
much of the damage was done over a 1000 years as farmers and locals used the wall as a ready made source of building material. And 200 years ago when General Wade used it for building material and his military road to crush the Scots. When I visit visited at the age of 8 I really wished it had been more complete.. hence this video to see the entire length and allow one's imagination to fill that 1900 years of history. thanks for watching.
@@julesdingle it’s such an amazing piece of history, I thought it was higher up the country tbh. It’s nice to see your video as never had the chance to visit any of it
Roman structures.. not global, and around 5 million tonnes of soil and rock was moved, quarried and built making it on par with the Great Pyramid which has a mass of 6 million tonnes
Great Stuff Jules, new sub here. Which drone are you using btw. Check out my one and only drone video if you have time. Will check out your other stuff now. Keep going don't stop.😬😍
Hi, thanks for the sub and yes will keep an eye out.. .. I currently use the Magic 2, the Hasselblad sensor and lens is awesome. I like so much I have a spare back up for the occasion I crash my main one or lose it. Really hope you enjoy my other content..and always looking at others to be inspired ..and to push the art
@@julesdingle yes I have been checking out your stuff and liking it. Amazing stuff. Oh the drone you have is really a good one especially the lens which is really power packed. Hope you release more stuff.
@@marcellomason Sadly the Magic 2 is discontinued ..however the good thing is there are lots of v good 2nd hand ones for sale.. I just bought a body only for £400. And thanks for prompting me...... So as you will see I have recently been to Norway and because of the huge scale of the place most of my early footage looked a bit meh. So I had to quickly develop skills and not be so complacent ..and I hoping the challenge paid off.. so I'm putting those lessons in a video which should be up in the next month, and I was prompted by your interest. I have put you on the notification list and look forward to your next video.
Fabiola's camera work, and excellent narration, both informative and beautiful to watch.

Very informative and a loss of something majestic that links us all to everyone who has passed

I have actually started doing some of it, the problem is very little survives, but who knows perhaps I can be future project
Great work Jules! Have an amazing weekend my friend!🎷🎷
Well done, thoroughly enjoyed the journey. Thank you.

on the positive side- I really enjoyed filing it.. so there is that 😉
stunning
Which part has the section from Gilsland to Lanercost? It seems to jump straight to Carlisle
Gilsland starts just after the 1 hour mark [Milecastle 48] Lanercost is reached at around 1hour 12 minutes in although the path of the Wall passes some distance north
Only thing that could top your cask aged, with a distinct oaky timbre, voice...is Pink Floyd's Live at Pompeii.
is that good or bad?

Really glad you appreciate the video.. and any time you need to travel the Wall you know where to find it!
Was it the largest Roman structure??🤔 Perhaps people ought to look at the Great Wall of China and the Silk Road … as one in the same…
