The Errington Arms at Port Gate

Port Gate was a gateway through Hadrian's Wall located south-west of the roundabout just north of the Errington Arms under the surface of the old Military Road. It provided a controlled crossing for Dere Street and historical details and limited excavation suggested it was fortified with towers on each side. http://www.pastscape.org.uk/hob.aspx?hob_id=18166&
