SK9864 : Ermine Street Roman Road

near to Waddington, Lincolnshire, Great Britain

Ermine Street Roman Road
Ermine Street Roman Road
High Dike, Waddington, looking N. Ermine Street north of SK9862 is covered SK9863 by the main runway of RAF Waddington LinkExternal link although the line of the old road is preserved in modern day parish boundaries. Here it re-emerges as a public highway where the perimeter fence of the base housing some of the RAF's most sophisticated aircraft runs alongside the road built for Caesar's legions. In a slightly less extreme contrast of ancient and modern, the car is a Hillman Minx cabriolet c. 1954 or 1955.
