As the name indicates, Stratton, effectively a suburb of Cirencester with a population of about 2,500, is situated on a Roman road, in this case Ermin Way that linked Gloucester with Silchester (not to be confused with Ermine Street). The road in this view was not part of the Roman road but is now the A435 leading through the Cotswold countryside to Cheltenham.
