Standing above the entrance to the River Tyne, Arbeia Roman Fort guarded the main sea route to Hadrian's Wall. It was a key garrison and military supply base to other forts along the Wall and is an important part of the history of Roman Britian. Step into the Fort and immerse yourself in the world of the Romans right in the heart of South Shields. Free entry.
