The Devil's Highway was a Roman road in Britain connecting Londinium (London) to Calleva Atrebatum (Silchester) via Pontes (Staines). The road was the principal route to the west of Britain during the Roman period but, whilst maintained for its easternmost section, was replaced by other routes after the demise of Roman Britain.
