The B1077 is a 57 mile long rural road from Ipswich to Swaffham.
It starts in Ipswich town centre and heads north. It crosses a railway line via a level crossing in Westerfield and then crosses the B1078 near Ashbocking. At Peats Corner it multiplexes west along the A1120 for a short distance before regaining its number and going through Debenham and Eye before crossing the River Waveney into Norfolk and reaching the A1066 on the edge of Diss.
The B1077 continued west from Caston into Watton and thence to Swaffham. During World War II, the road was diverted to Carbrooke Hall as the original road was severed by the building of RAF Watton. The Watton to Swaffham road was declassified in the 1990s.
