The Lost Urban Wall

The Wall did not begin in open country. Its first ten Roman miles ran down to the Tyne and out through what is now Newcastle — and that stretch is almost entirely gone, buried under roads, houses, the railway and the old shipyards.

This is a living evidence map, not a clean line on a tourist plan. Each entry below is a record from the Tyne & Wear Historic Environment Record (Sitelines): what was actually found in a trench, what was searched for and not found, and what is only reasoned from the Wall's regular spacing. It is ordered east to west — the way you would walk it from its end at the sea. Grid references are shown as the HER records them; they mark evidence, not precise points.
