Alston & South Tynedale (part 2)

The Roman fort of Epiacum...

.... this is what you see today

The Pennine Way then drops to the River South Tyne

It's nice to be off the boggy moors for a while

One of the many  viaducts on the disused branch line from Haltwhistle to Alston 

......then back to the boggy moor again!

.....More soggy moorland!

Then joining the 'Maiden Way', the old Roman road between Epiacum Fort and Hadrians Wall about 10 miles to the north of here

Continuing on the 'Maiden Way' to the road at the hamlet of Lambley
