The Wansdyke runs through many miles of countryside in the south of England. Its construction ranges across the lengths but parts appear to be late or post Roman at the earliest, and the techniques used seem in a more Roman military style. This section is a noticeably linear ditch that runs along the southern extremes of the old Roman town of Bath. Further ahead, the dyke crosses the old Fosse Way.
