Best Answer

By the early 400s, the Empire was in decline and Britain became cut off from Rome. Frontier defenses were neglected and as pay ceased to arrive, soldiers drifted away. Settlement patterns changed. Border skirmishes continued, the Wall's stones reappeared in local farm houses, field walls and even churches. It was only relatively recently that interest in the Wall as an archaeological monument, and as a place to visit, grew. The Hadrian's Wall and forts we see today are all the more precious for being the last remains of such an incredible Roman structure.

Most of it is still there. Some of the stone was used by local people to build houses during the past 1600 years but you can still see a lot of it.
