The Great North Road or A1 has moved westward in various stages around the town of Boroughbridge. Originally it passed straight through the centre of the town. It was then shifted west, and this road formed one carriageway taking it away from the town. The A1 was moved again, running parallel and side by side to this one and upgraded to a motorway. The photographed road being renumbered as the A168.
