English Heritage needs your Hadrian’s Wall souvenirs
In celebration of the 1900th anniversary of the start of construction of Hadrian’s Wall, English Heritage will open a new exhibition documenting the landmark’s long history as a tourist attraction. Members of the public are invited to send in pictures of their souvenirs from the Wall, with the best ones chosen to be exhibited alongside ancient keepsakes. One souvenir recently acquired by the charity is a tin filled with scavenged fragments that, according to a handwritten note attached to its lid, were discovered in 1891. The exhibition, opening this autumn, will also showcase some of Hadrian’s Wall’s oldest souvenirs, including an ornate cup dating back to around 130 AD.
