The replica sections of Hadrian's Wall at Vindolanda include a stone section of wall with a turret, and a length of turf wall with a timber milecastle gateway. Both were constructed in the summer of 1974 as a part of a research project to study how long, and what materials it would take, to build such structures. They also provide a scale of how tall Hadrian's Wall may have been. Info source: Vindolanda Charitable Trust Wikipedia Vindolanda https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vindolanda
