By booking an education visit, you can discover Birdoswald Roman Fort and get up close to the ruins in your own way. Explore the once bustling fort, see the longest remaining stretch of Hadrian’s Wall and imagine what life would have been like on the edge of the Roman Empire in the visitor centre.
Don’t forget, if you are looking for help with funding the cost of your trip, you can apply for a bursary!
