Looking along the line of King Street
Looking along the line of King Street
The apparent route (as shown on OS map) of the Roman road crossing the 'Kesteven Uplands'. Patchy woodlands of the former Kesteven Forest lie on the slopes leading down to the Fen flatlands to the east (right). I couldn't see any obvious sigh of the road at ground level.
King Street (Roman Road 26)

King Street is the name of a modern road on the line of a Roman road (Margary Road number 26). The road left Ermine Street near Peterborough (Durobrivae) and then ran north for about 30 miles, close to the edge of the Fens, to rejoin Ermine Street at Ancaster (possibly Causennae).
