Quote:That would be the same problem as Mancetter, High Cross, Church Stowe, Tripontium, Paulerspury and to an extent Dunstable.Precisely. In my view, the only plausible site on Watling Street is Dunstable. That is the junction with the Icknield Way which would take the Iceni back to their homelands and you would have to explain why they would wish to go any further north. Even so, from a Roman point of view, that is also unlikely when there were safer rallying points further west on the Fosse Way.
