Gussage Down, Dorset

Gussage St Michael, Roman road

Uploader's Comments

The minor road from Monkton Up Wimborne to A354 crosses Ackling Dyke (the Roman road from London to Exeter). The embankment can clearly be seen, and stones from the original foundations just above the modern road line. Further North, the embankment is again visible, though lined with saplings. http://www.dorsetlife.co.uk/2010/03/following-in-roman-footsteps/
