Winshields Crag and Caw Gap

Once Brewed, Vindolanda and the Stanegate

Four and three quarter miles in two and a half hours on the quiet side of the Wall, down lanes and field paths to the boundary of the Vindolanda excavations and back along the line of the Stanegate Roman road. Start at The Sill national landscape centre at Once Brewed, where the car park is large, pay-and-display and open all year, with the Twice Brewed Inn next door. Vindolanda is a paid site with its own dog rules so check before you plan to go in; the walk itself crosses sheep pasture the whole way with gates and one ladder stile, and the burn below Codley Gate is the only reliable water.
