Very interesting. I was brought up in Caernarfon, or Segontium (Segontio on the map, although I've never seen that spelling before).
I've walked and run part of the Roman road along the north Wales coast. Much of it is the old pilgrim's path that goes from Treffynon (Holywell) in the east to Ynys Enlli (Bardsey Island) off the tip of the western Llyn peninsula. It's a strange feeling to walk along a route that has been walked for milenia.
But a shame that Sarn Helen isn't there, but I know there isn't much evidence of its existence.

- toyg 4y ago> It's a strange feeling to walk along a route that has been walked for milenia. I was literally born on the via Emilia, a clogged artery of Northern Italy connecting Milano to Rimini on the Eastern coast. Obviously, loads of towns and cities have since developed all along that road. A significant amount of important roads all across Europe are similarly old, people just don't know or notice.
