Wheeldale
Roman Road off minor road north of Pickering. English
Heritage Extensive remains of a road which is generally thought to be
Roman, though some authorities believe it to be either Saxon or, possibly, pre-Roman.
Reached by a path across a field. The road is composed of very large slabs making
up a lightly rounded surface, with no evidence of gutters. It is possible that
the road was built to ease troop movements to the coast. Local legend tells that
it was built by the giant Wade so that his wife could take her sheep to their
pasture more easily.
