For a chance of winning an official Hadrian's Wall Path Guide book, published by Aurum Press, worth £12.99 and a National Trail goodie pack which is priceless, just answer the following question:

Where is the new passport stamping station on Hadrian's Wall Path, that was introduced this year?

The winner will be chosen at random from all the correct entries at the beginning of November.
