Should this be a park, an itinerary or something else entirely? Hobbitschuster (talk) 15:26, 28 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Park feels right IMO. The prime visitor attraction is the Wall-with-an-actual-wall, the central 20-some miles between Hexham and Greenhead. Either side, it descends into lower country, still a nice hike but the masonry has gone and it's more like Hadrian's Ditch. Then it becomes faint beneath modern farmland and housing, and in Newcastle is entirely lost. It's waymarked as a coast-to-coast footpath but few visitors will want to treat it as an itinerary. So the page wants a bit more content but looks well-structured. Grahamsands (talk) 10:43, 6 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
