Hadrian's Wall Hike, Day 2, Part 4-July 27

Housesteads is the grandaddy of the Hadrian Wall forts. I arrive here about noon. It was a rough hike to this point. Weather from Green Carts starts out good but later into the hike I encounter heavy rain, strong wind, and long climbs. Weather clears when I approach Housesteads. Lots of mud. My packed lunch's Mars candy bar is the most wonderful thing! Thank you Sandra at Green Carts! View of Housesteads fort.

This is a granary. I leave Housesteads at 1:05 pm heading for Twice Brewed.
