Monument record 844/1/19 - Roman Road - Gowy Bank Farm (Chester - Manchester Route 7a)
Please read our guidance about the use of Cheshire Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
Roman road. West of Stamford Bridge the course appears to veer towards the River Gowy, a deviation which is matched on the east by a similar one followed by an embankment, ditch and parish boundary. This would, therefore, appear to fix the crossing at this point.
