Batham Gate, Roman road in Tideswell, England
The ancient Batham Gate road extends from Templeborough to Buxton through Derbyshire, covering multiple settlements across challenging terrain.
The Roman engineers constructed this road during the first century to connect the military fort at Templeborough with the thermal springs at Buxton.
Northern English dialects influenced the name Batham Gate, as 'gate' traditionally means 'road' in these regional variations of English language.
Modern visitors can observe sections of the original Roman construction near Peak Forest, where protected segments remain under scheduled monument status.
A Roman milestone discovered in Silverlands contains an inscription marking exactly eleven miles distance from the fort of Navio to Buxton.
