     South Shields
    The Arbeia Roman Fort, situated in South Shields, Tyne and Wear, England, is a significant historical site. This ancient Roman fort was a part of the Hadrian's Wall system, marking the eastern end on the Tyne estuary. Founded around 160 AD, the fort guarded the main sea access to Hadrian's Wall and later became the wall's maritime supply fort. It was occupied until the Romans left Britain in the 5th century.
