The Hereward Way and Cycle Route 63 following the course of the 'Fen Causeway' Roman road along the north side of Whittlesey. The 'ston' part of the road's name might derive from 'stan' = 'gravel' https://epns.nottingham.ac.uk/browse/The+Isle+of+Ely/Whittlesey/53287358b47fc40c4f0005bf-Stonald+Field , a reference to the hard surface of Roman roads.
