    In Yorkshire -- Hadrians Wall is a must


    Don't tell Durham and Northumberland residents that they're in Scotland now!

    I should have been more specific -- whilst in Yorkshire not it is in Yorkshire (although basic research would have clarified that)

    Much as I am aware Chester isnt in Staffordshire but I still suggested it as worth a visit

    Just wanted to agree with the two recommendations for the Ironbridge museums in this thread - it's a fabulous place.

  • It might be worth looking at getting English Heritage memberships as that could work out much cheaper if you are visiting multiple sites. It's ~£70 but some sites can easily set you back £15+
