The name of one of the two north to
south streets through the village of Leintwardine is Watling Street.
This is not the same as the Watling Street which runs
from Dover to London and then to
Wroxeter. This
is sometimes known as Watling Street West. South of the
River Wye it is called Stony Street. This Roman Road
connected
Chester to
Caerleon
and ran north to south through Herefordshire. Further
south it runs through the Roman town of Magnis at
Kenchester.
