taken 19 years ago, near to Stilton, Cambridgeshire, England

The Bell at Stilton
The Bell at Stilton
One of the many great coaching inns that lined the Great North Road. No longer a traveller's stopping place, as Stilton is now bypassed by the A1 motorway, leaving it a peaceful, sleepy village once again.
A1 & A1(M), Great North Road

The A1 is the longest numbered road in the UK at 410 miles long. It connects London with Edinburgh, via the east of England.
For much of its path it follows the Great North Road the old coaching route between London and Edinburgh. Several sections of the route are classified as motorway A1(M). The modern A1 bypasses the towns the Great North Road passed through and is dual carriageway for most of its route through England.
