Milecastle 35, Roman milecastle in Haydon, England.
Milecastle 35 measures 19 meters in length and 15.5 meters in width, with stone walls reaching heights of 1.75 meters at certain sections.
The structure underwent initial clearance in the mid-19th century, followed by extensive archaeological investigations between 1908 and 1911, with additional excavations from 1982 to 1987.
The site contains a Type II gateway at the southeast corner and includes remnants of a stone oven that indicates sustained Roman occupation through multiple periods.
The location connects to the Hadrian's Wall Path network, allowing visitors to explore the archaeological site while walking through the historical landscape.
Archaeological evidence reveals that the milecastle transformed into an agricultural settlement during its later occupation phases, with modifications to its original military structure.
