Frans de Leij, Stane Street

Original watercolour by Frans de Leij of Stane Street in the South Downs, the old Roman road linking London to Chichester, signed and framed 107cm x 57cm

Stane Street is the modern name given to an important 90 km-long (56 mi) Roman road in southern England that linked Londonium (London) to Noviomagus Reginorum (Chichester). In use by 70 AD and may have been constructed in the first decade of the Roman occupation of Britain (as early as 43–53 AD).
