Hadrian's wall did not need to be discovered by archaeologists. Being a tall wall, it did not end up underground. Much of it disappeared, because it was quarried to reuse the stones over the centuries. George Wade quarried it for the construction of a military road the 1720s and 1730s to control Scotland and the Jacobites. Farmers also took atones from the wall for their use. Much of its preservation was thanks to John Clayton who in the 19th century bought land along the central stretch of the wall to preserve. He used the proceeds from farming and grazing to do restoration work. He also excavated some forts and miletowers which were part of the fortifications. Eventually the land along the wall was gradually bought by the National Trust.
