Camlet Way

Camlet Way was a Roman road in England running east-west between Colchester (Camulodunum) in Essex and Silchester (Calleva Atrebatum) in Hampshire, passing through St Albans (Verulamium). It crossed the River Thames by bridge at Hedsor Wharf to Sashes Island near Cookham in Berkshire. The road was one of several major routes connecting Camulodunum, Roman Britain's first capital, to the wider province. Modern remote sensing data from the Chiltern Conservation Board's 'Beacons of the Past' project has helped re-evaluate evidence for the road's route.
