On our way back to Burton-on-Trent, we went to Housesteads Roman Fort, on Hadrian's Wall. 
Views north towards the Cheviot Hills and Scotland. Imagine being a soldier in the fort, waiting for the Picts, and later the Scots, to come over those hills to attack you.
After Housesteads, our car broke down in a village called Fourstones. We were taken home in a big recovery truck!

I think I'm behind, I'll have to go check out the rest of your pics.
The set of pics you should check out is No. 7, Cragside Hall. It's a Victorian mansion.
It was wonderful to see Hadrian's Wall. I've wanted to see it for a long time. I hope you get to see it! Photographs don't do justice to it.
