We've imported the milecastle and turret data compiled by Scott Vanderbilt
205 places connected with Hadrian's Wall were imported today. The neighborhood KML view of Hadrian's Wall shows them all.

Below is a closeup. Some forts and milecastles are represented by
polygons, turrets are represented by point placemarks. Finding a way to
keep the point placemarks from swamping the polygons in these maps is a
high priority todo.
