Full Description

{3} The most important route in the Saxon period may have been that along Kings Meadow Lane to Irthlingborough via Bertletsforth. Prior to the construction of the bridge over the Nene by the Abbot of Peterborough this may have been the main route connecting Higham and Irthlingborough in the Saxon and early medieval period.
