Old houses on New Watling Street
This street runs north from the crossroads in the centre of the village of Leadgate. The name refers to the fact that this was the old Roman Road of Dere Street. Watling Street is a bit of a misnomer, as it is a Roman road in southern England. These old houses are from the original mid-late 19th century founding of the village.
