Holyhead Road, Wellington
The name gives a clue that this was once a more important road than it is now. Originally part of Roman Watling Street (note the dead straight alignment), it became the A5 in modern times. Nowadays, however, through traffic is directed onto the M54, which runs a short distance to the south, leaving Holyhead Road, with its new designation as the B5061, with hardly any traffic (at least in this view). Golf Links Lane leads off to the right.

Watling Street, Wellington
The route of the old A5 through Wellington, before the M54 took all the through traffic away. As the name suggests, also the old Roman road out of Viroconium. Now a much quieter residential area.
