Walking The Antonine Wall Trail, Kirkintilloch to Castlecary, Scotland, directions and Roman history
This is the walking route from Kirkintilloch to Castlecary, following the path of the Antonine Wall, built by the Romans after they had invaded Scotland. The film shows what remains today of the wall, the Roman forts and some beautiful scenery. We walked the best preserved and most scenic parts of the wall, between Kirkintilloch and Falkirk, over 2 days.
You will have heard of Hadrian’s Wall, but you may not be aware that they built a second wall further north, the Antonine Wall. The Romans built this wall between AD 142-3, in Scotland and occupied it for at least 20 years. It extended over 37 miles from the Clyde to the Forth.
Day One – This has a really scenic route, from Kirkintilloch to Twechar. You will visit Bar Hill, the best preserved fort along the Antonine Wall. There is beautiful scenery and great stretches of the Antonine Wall ditch from Castle Hill, Dullator and also at Toll Park. The film gives directions for the walking route which was just under 8 miles long approx.
We started our walk from Banks Road, Kirkintilloch, from there walk down the track and head east along the canal footpath. At the Tintock Wood sign keep left and then cross under the canal, through the tunnel and continue along the path east until you reach Twechar where you get the first glimpse of the Antonine Wall ditch. Cross over the bridge and continue down main street until you reach the war memorial, turn left up the track until you reach Bar Hill Roman Fort. Head up Castle Hill, for great views, before walking one of the most impressive sections of the ditch, as you head down the slope.
If you are in need of refreshments when you reach Twechar, there is a pub on the right of main street or further up the road you will find the Healthy Living Centre, which offers basic food and drinks.
After Castle Hill follow the sign-posted path, before you cross the B802. Continue to follow the path to Croy Hill, with spectacular scenery and views. The fort is north of Croy Hill on the descent although nothing remains today. Turn left at the cross path then take the next right towards Castlecary. When you come to the road head right and walk along it. When you come to a railway bridge take the left path and follow the path until you come to another railway tunnel, pass through it. You will see some spectacular ditch in this section at Dullator. Continue along the path, past Westerwood farm, which sits on the site of a Roman fort. Be prepared the track at the north of Cumbernauld airport is overgrown and difficult to walk through. The stretch of the ditch at Tollpark is much better and this has a long section of ditch and pleasant views to the north. This brings you to the end of the day 1 route. If you are following the 2 day walking route, when you reach Wyndford Road make your way to your accommodation. If you are staying at the Castlecary Hotel continue along the walking path directly ahead, until you reach the back of the Hotel. If you are staying at the Black Bull in Cumbernauld Village, take a right and walk down to the B816, where you can catch the X37 to the village or continue walking if you have the stamina. Please note the last bus is 7pm approx, so check times. Directly opposite the bus stop is the Wardpark Film Studios where they filmed some of The Avengers Age of Ultron and The Outlander tv series.
If you want to do the full 2 day walk and are driving to the area you can park your car near Lenzie train station then catch an X87 bus from Kirkintilloch Rd to John Street, which is close to Banks Rd. At the end of day 2 you can take the train from Falkirk back to Lenzie.
Tips: My advice come prepared for all types of weather, it didn’t stop raining on day 2!
Highlights:
0:02:42 - Bar Hill Roman Fort, Twechar.
0:04:53 - Castle Hill Ditch.
0:06:43 - Croy Hill Fort and ditch.
0:09:03 - East Dullatur.

Walking the Antonine Wall Trail - Castlecary to Falkirk, Scotland, directions and Roman history
This is the walking route from Castlecary to Falkirk, following the path of the Antonine Wall, built by the Romans after their invasion of Scotland (Caledonia). The film shows what remains today of the wall, the Roman forts and some beautiful scenery. We walked the best preserved and most scenic parts of the wall, between Kirkintilloch and Falkirk, over two days, this film shows our walk on day two.
You will have heard of Hadrian’s Wall, which the Romans built across Britain, but you may not be aware that they built a second wall further north, the Antonine Wall. The Romans built this wall between AD 142-4, in Scotland, which they occupied for at least 20 years. It extended over 37 miles from the Clyde to the Forth. On day one we had walked the scenic route from Kirkintilloch to Castlecary, where we stayed overnight. Along the way we had visited Bar Hill fort and the well-preserved ditch at East Dullator.
Day Two – This walking route boasts some of the best preserved stretches of the Antonine Wall ditch at Seabegs Wood, Rough Castle, Watling Lodge and Bantaskin. It also has the impressive earth fortifications of the Roman fort at Rough Castle. You can also visit the impressive feat of modern design and engineering, the Falkirk Wheel. The film also gives directions for the walking route which was just under 10 miles long approx.
Route:
1/ We started from Catlecary Road, Castlecary, cross the bridge over the motorway and then take the first right to visit the site of the Castlecary fort.
2/ Retrace your steps and continue east briefly along the B816, taking the first path on your left which takes you over a bridge to the Forth and Clyde canal towpath, which you follow east.
3/After about 2.5km you will come to Seabegs Wood, on the opposite side of the canal. Follow the footpath on your left, through the underpass to visit the scenic tree-lined ditch in the wood.
4/ Retrace your steps and continue east along the canal towpath until you reach and cross the road bridge over the canal at Bonnybridge. Continue down Broomhill Road, turn left down the winding Foundry Road, over the railway bridge and eventually you will arrive at Rough Castle.
5/ After Rough Castle cross over the ditch and continue east, over a stile and through the woods to Falkirk Wheel for refreshments.
6/ Make your way to Tamfourhill Road, along which there are glimpses of overgrown ditch from a number of paths.
7/ Shortly on your right is a well-preserved stretch of tree-lined wall at Watling Lodge.
8/Continue along Glenfuir Road until reach close on your right, follow this to Bantaskin, where you will find another picturesque tree-lined stretch of wall.
9/Exit down the steps into Queens Drive, make your way to the B8080, eastwards to Callandar Park, for another stretch of ditch. Callandar House if open has refreshments and an exhibition of the Wall.
10/This brings you to the end of the day 2 route. If you are following the 2 day walking route make your to the nearby Falkirk High train station, where you can catch a train to Lenzie station to return to your car and from there to your accommodation.

The Antonine Wall, Scotland. Full tour of the Roman Wall.
You will have heard of Hadrian’s Wall, which the Romans built at the northern boundary of the Roman Empire, but you may not be aware that they built a second wall further north, the Antonine Wall, after they had invaded Scotland. It extended over 37 miles from the Clyde to the Forth. I walked the best preserved and most scenic parts of the wall between Kirkintilloch and Falkirk and visited the remaining sites by car. This film shows what remains of the wall today.
The wall was built between AD 142-3 under the orders of Emperor Antonius Pius and was occupied by the Romans for at least 20 years. It was built from turf and timber and consisted of a rampart up to 12 feet tall. An example of a reconstructed Roman turf and timber fort can be visited is at Lunt Fort, Bagington, England.

Alexandria ????????????????????????????
Alexandria (Scots: The Vale, Scottish Gaelic: Alexandria is a town in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland. The town is on the River Leven, three miles (five kilometres) north of Dumbarton and 15 mi (24 km) north-west of Glasgow.
he town's traditional industries, most importantly cotton manufacturing, bleaching and printing, have been phased out. In the 1970s Alexandria was redeveloped, with a new town centre layout and traffic system. Local landmarks include Christie Park and the Category B listed Smollett Fountain in the town centre. Lomond Galleries on North Main Street is a former car factory with an impressive dome and an even more impressive marble entrance hall and staircase. It was originally built in 1906 as the Argyll Motor Works, for Argyll Motors Ltd. A carving above the entrance shows one of the company's cars. After the car production ceased in 1914, it was used by the Admiralty for the manufacture of torpedoes, which were test-fired in Loch Long, and in the early 1970s was the scene of the Plessey sit-in The building now hosts a shopping mall but has retained many of its striking architectural features.
Major employers in the area were Westclox and Polaroid, both based in the Leven Industrial Estate; Aggreko based a major purpose-built factory in the estate from 2000–2010. The Ballantine's whisky distillery continues to operate in the estate.
Lennoxtown
Lennoxtown is a town situated at the foot of the Campsie Fells in East Dunbartonshire.
Lennoxtown was formerly known as ‘Newtown of Campsie’ and the present population is around 4,000. A notable building is the Campsie High Kirk, a gothic-style building built around 1828 by Glasgow architect David Hamilton, which was unfortunately destroyed by fire in the 1980s and now lies in ruin. Lennoxtown is now home to a Schoenstatt retreat centre. Whitefield Pond is a popular spot of fishing and sits just below the nearby Campsie Fells.
Lennox Castle was also designed and built by David Hamilton between 1837 and 1841 after he was commissioned by John Lennox Kincaid, head of the local Clan Kincaid. After it was sold in 1927, Lennox Castle was used as both a maternity and mental hospital until 2002 and the building was severely damaged by fire in 2008. Celtic Football Club now has their modern training ground in part of the former castle grounds.
The town has a selection of local shops and a wide variety of cafes and pubs to eat in. Lennoxtown is easily accessible by road and lies close to the M80 and M73 motorways. There are a numer of buses services connect the town to Glasgow as well as a numer of surrounding towns such as Kirkintilloch and Milton of Campsie.
German Airplane crash WW2
Gerd's widow came to Lennoxtown, Scotland with the intention to return her husbands body to his homeland Germany. On seeing the tranquility of his grave in Lennoxtown she made the decision to leave him to rest in Scotland. Every year thereafter she laid flowers on his grave even after she remarried. Local school children also have a custom to lay flowers on his grave.
The aircraft had taken off from a base in Holland on the 6th May 1941 as part of a large attack against Glasgow and Greenock. At 02:00 on the 7th while approaching its target at between 10,000 and 12,000ft it was engaged by a Defiant nightfighter from No.141 Squadron operating from RAF Ayr. The pilot of the Defiant, Squadron Leader Edward Chatham Wolfe, was able to formate with the aircraft allowing his gunner, Sergeant Alfred Ashcroft, to direct fire at the Ju88 following which control was lost and it began to dive towards the ground. The crew began to abandon the aircraft with two successfully using their parachutes, however the parachutes of both the observer and pilot never opened and both were killed.
Without its crew onboard the Ju88 dived into moorland near Newlands above the town of Lennoxtown in East Dunbartonshire where it exploded on impact, at least one of its bomb detonated during the impact scattering wreckage over a wide area and leaving a 15ft deep crater in the soft ground.
The Küstenfliegergruppes were coastal reconnaissance and naval support groups, but they were also engaged in normal bombing sorties.
The two officers who were killed are buried in differnet cemeteries, Oberleutnant Coenen is buried at Cannock Chase German Military Cemetery while Hauptmann Hansmann is buried locally to the crash site in Lennoxtown.

Hiking the Cumbria Way, a classic British long distance trail in the Lake District National Park UK. Unlike most, we did the Cumbria Way North-South. Of all the Lake District walks, the Cumbria Way walk is probably the best one, if long distance hikes are your thing. Overall the hike took 4 days to complete, as we skipped the Carlisle-Caldbeck leg. We did it in mid-April and spring was in full motion in the Lake District. It was our second time walking the Cumbria Way, this time with proper camera gear + drone, so hope you enjoy this 4K video!

Richborough Roman Fort, Kent. Full tour of the site and it's history, including the Roman Invasion
Richborough Roman Fort is where the Roman invasion of Britain began. Today it still has impressive remains of the 30 foot high walls and deep defensive ditches. Explore the fort which is set in the open, scenic Kent countryside. My film takes you on a full tour with interesting facts and history about the site.
Reasons to visit Richborough:
• Spacious, open countryside, location packed with history.
• This is where the Roman invasion of Britain began in AD 43.
• It is the only site in Britain which tells the full story of the Roman occupation from start to finish.
• Emperor Claudius landed here with war elephants to accept the surrender of 11 tribal Kings.
• It was the main port of Britannia, a thriving town which the Romans called Ruputiae.
• It had an 85 foot tall triumphal arch, adorned in white marble, one of the largest arches in the entire Empire. Richborough was the symbolic gateway to the Roman Empire.
• Richborough has the impressive remnants of a third century, Saxon Shore fort, with 30 foot high walls and 10 metre wide ditches, one of a chain of forts built to defend against pirate raids.
• It was on the front-line of a breakaway Empire from Rome, established in AD 287 by Carausius, the first British Empire.
• Richborough has some of the earliest evidence of Christianity in the United Kingdom, the remains of a fourth century church.
• This is where the first Roman road in Britain started, Watling Street, which travelled to London and beyond.

The site is run by English Heritage and has a museum, shop, toilets and offers some limited refreshments. The site has a small car park.
The site of the town’s amphitheatre is nearby and can also be visited although little remains visible today.
Since filming Richborough Roman Fort, has added a timber gateway — a replica of the original that stood on the exact spot. The gate was part of a fortification with a defensive rampart and two deep ditches, and the first structure they built during the invasion. You can climb up the rampart and then head to the top of the gateway for stunning views.
Why not travel to the fort by boat with trips run by the Sandwich River Bus run boat trips from The Quay, Sandwich, Kent, CT13 9EN. They run trips run weekends and school holidays all year, also Thursday and Friday from Easter until mid September, weather permitting, 11am to 6pm, or dusk in winter.
