Roman road from Silchester to Bath
The Roman road from Silchester to Bath connected Calleva Atrebatum with Aquae Sulis via Spinae, Cunetio and Verlucio. The road was a significant route for east–west travel and military logistics in southeast England during the 1st to 5th centuries.
Parts of its route were subsequently followed by earthworks that are presumed to form part of Wansdyke. During the Middle Ages, the road was used by drovers, as well as by merchants and travellers. Portions of the Roman road are extant, while in other places all apparent vestiges are absent from view.
