Emperor Hadrian Statue Detail

Thursday, 27th November 2008 @ 7:30 am by Ed O'Keeffe

This statue was purchased and erected by Brampton Chamber of Trade for the people of Brampton in April 1999 and depicts Emperor Hadrian. As far as I can tell Brampton is half way along the Roman Wall, which was built between A.D. 122 and 128. This is the nearest big town to my favourite part of the wall at Twice Brewed. I felt that the above photograph worked best in monochrome (black and white) as it was an overcast day and the weather hadn’t done any favours to this statue.
