The 65-metre long fence with gold painted silhouettes of Roman soldiers cost £29,000 and took several years before it was completed in 2007. Although close to the Hadrian’s Trail footpath and cycle route it is about a mile from the stretch of Hadrian's Wall that passes through Lemington to the north http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/6336887.stm
