One of the four great roads built by the Romans during the Roman period in Britain. It runs from London to Wroxeter and Chester via St. Albans. The other four roads are the Fuos Road, the Icknead Road, and the Ermine Road. Watling is a corruption of the name Waetlingaceaster, which was used by early Anglo-Saxon settlers for St. Albans.
