Forthcoming book - Roads and Trackways of North Wales
To be published by Landmark much later in 2008 will be my first book - “Roads and Trackways of North Wales”. Originating as an affiliated Time Team Big Roman Dig event in July 2004 tracing the Roman (and prehistoric) road and trackway from Canovium to Segontium, the project subsequently grew to encompass a greater span of periods and a much bigger area.
It includes:
- Prehistoric Trackways
- Roman Roads
- Pilgrimage Roads
- Drove Roads
- up to and including Turnpikes and Thomas Telford
Covering Barmouth to Welshpool northwards
A cover shot will appear here once available; likely publication around October.
On related topics, Landmark already have two excellent volumes - Roads and Trackways of Wales (very little content on North Wales), and Peakland Roads and Trackways.
More details will appear when publication approaches, and should you be on Facebook, there is a group at www.roadsandtrackwaysofnorthwales.org.uk
