The Tales of the Frontier research project drew upon histories, handbooks, maps, excavation reports, novels, poems, works of art, photographs, questionnaires, interviews, museum displays and websites to explore how perceptions and representations of Hadrian´s Wall have developed over time and from different perspectives. The research considered a range of divergent individual and group claims, including scholars, local people and visitors.
As part of the project, team members took hundreds of photographs of Hadrian´s Wall and its landscape. The ADS archive includes a sample of these images.
