Monument record 1700/1/20 - Roman Road - Edgerley Farm to Barton (Chester to Wroxeter Route 6a)

Evidence for the course of the road revealed during drain cutting, cultivation and the examination of aerial photographs Watling Street is the name given to the Roman road that links Chester with Wroxeter, and Caerleon. It is not to be confused with the Watling Street that runs from the SE coast through London then onto Verulamium ( St Albans) and (Viroconium) Wroxeter. The route of the road can be followed from Chester to its crossing point of the Dee at Aldford and then onto Malpas where it disappears from the landscape.
