Monument Number 1029835
Hob Uid: 1029835
Location : North Yorkshire Ryedale East Riding of Yorkshire Wharram, Birdsall, Wetwang, Settrington, Fimber, Tibthorpe, Norton-on-Derwent, Bainton
Grid Ref : SE9600052000
Summary : Roman road running from Malton to Bainton.
More information : RR 813 Roman Road. Malton - Wetwang - Bainton. This south-eastern route seems well attested by Roman sites and finds near the first part of its course, and also by the name Wharram le Street. Leaving the ford at Norton, its course is very direct to North Grimston, where it climbs steeply on to the wolds, continuing in long straight lengths to Towthorpe and Wetwang. The present straight roads to and from Wetwang do not, it seems, mark its course in any way, for it is known that, before enclosure, the road followed a straight course, passing a little to the west of Wetwang, Tibthorpe and Bainton, where traces were seen, although now obliterated by cultivation.
