> Ogle Northumberland Reunion July 2005 > Wallsend - the Roman name was Segedunum
On the day the Ogle reunion started , we spent the morning at Wallsend, a short subway ride from center city, the beginning of Hadrian's Wall, located on the river Tyne, next to the Swann-Hunter shipyards. The remains of the Roman fort are mainly in the ground, but a bath house has been reconstructed as well as a short bit of wall of the fort.
A gatehouse reconstructed at South Shields (Roman name - Arbeia), which would be much like any of the gatehouses constructed along the wall.
