A historic harbour wall that dates back to the 12th century, featuring a mixture of medieval and modern architecture. The wall stretches for approximately 1 mile, offering stunning views of the Solway Firth and surrounding countryside. Visitors can walk along the wall, taking in the sights and sounds of the bustling port, and explore the adjacent marina and docklands.
This is a starting point for Hadrians Wall. There is not much to see here other than the informational sign. It is a pretty spot with lots of birds. There is no parking and signage saying private road. It has several homes on it. Once you go down the road you see the informational sign. We took turns to get out of the car and stayed only briefly.
There's lots of seabirds all mixed together and it's a decent place to walk the dog but not really somewhere to take the kids as the beach isn't safe. As for the actual harbour it's not really recognisable as such but the history is pretty interesting.
Great views of solway firth limited parking
It's not the biggest structure but it certainly has a commanding presence over this small section of the Solway. Was very confused when we saw it at first before piecing together what it was. Shame you can't get to it.
