Rediscovering the Antonine Wall is three year project which will raise awareness of the Roman Empire structure. A replica of the Eastermains stone will be installed in Twechar near the line of the wall. The stone was discovered just west of the village at Inchbelly Bridge in 1740. It s a momentous achievement and will help to bring the past back to life for local communities, said Patricia Weeks, Antonine Wall world heritage site co-ordinator for Historic Environment Scotland (HES). It is the first marker of the Antonine Wall to be installed as part of the £2.1 million project, which aims to create awareness and engagement within communities along the line of the wall - a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
