Full Description

Part of length of Roman road between Long Melford and Pakenham (Margary 33a)(S1). Between cited grid references, continues N as Little Whelnetham 005.
Crosses woodland and fields from TL 8932 8804 to TL 8927 5749 then follows line of existing A134 for most of length to TL 8899 5454. Line S of this point unknown but probably traverses or adjoins `The Warbanks' (Lawshall 004 and Cockfield 001) & may relate to ERom site Alpheton 006. Presumably eventually links to settlement at Long Melford.
