Here the A45 is an old-fashioned A road which has retained trunk status even though its traditional role was largely superseded by motorways many years ago. In one of those strange anomalies that afflict the UK road network, the stretch between Daventry and Dunchurch within Warwickshire is restricted to 50mph whereas the stretch in Northamptonshire, which is generally narrower and more sinuous, has the national 60mph limit.
