Calling all armchair generals! Boudica's Last Stand.

"Sunningdale" seems to be a late naming... pre-1811 references to the place name would be appreciated.

I was joking about the name...

see the red line? that a direct line from Wroxeter to Colchester

I know Romans built straight roads, but not that straight!

Trace the route on a map of actual Roman roads. It does not go via Church Stowe.

(That's to say, you could detour that way if you like, but only if you knew that you would need to march down to London next, or that you might want to retreat again all the way up Watling Street trailed by your enemy for day after day like some sort of parade, after surrendering the high ground of the Chilterns, just to fight a battle in the Midlands many miles from where you'd started... But I digress!)
