Description: | Reconstruction of Hadrian's Wall outside Segedunum Roman Fort. There is evidence to suggest that the Wall was not left bare stone. Here, a number of alternatives are suggested, including different types of pointing, red stonework painted on a plaster base, and plain white-wash. In the Roman period stone was a cheap building material and to them bare stone was as uninviting as bare breeze-blocks are to us today. | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Identifier: | emu.ecatalogue.britisharchaeology.450845 | Go to resource |
