Hadrian's Wall - illuminating the Wall
 
On March 13th there are plans to light torches along the whole 83 miles of the Wall. It promises to be a spectacular and unique event. Wondered if any one here had any plans to visit the Wall to see this and their preferred viewpoints.

Wow that looks incredible, I would love to see the wall lit up like that. Scotland is my dream trip so this would be the perfect time to do it. But we've already planned a trip for February to Paris so this one is out for us.

Ah No! I would LOVE to see that! They had better get me some photos from a helicopter or jetplane or I'll sulk for a long long time.......
I have been to part of the wall but am planning a much more indepth look in the next few years. Maybe I will be lucky then - IF they light it up again!
Thanks for the news.

What a beautiful idea! Hope this is not 'just once in a lifetime'.
