London to Brighton Way, Roman road between London and Brighton, England

The London to Brighton Way extends through Surrey and West Sussex, following a nearly straight path through Ardingly, Haywards Heath, and Burgess Hill.

Built during Roman times, this road incorporated materials from iron-producing regions in the Weald and utilized iron slag in its construction methods.

The Anglo-Saxon name Streatham in London indicates the presence of this Roman road, revealing how ancient infrastructure influenced place names in England.

Modern travelers can follow sections of the original route along the A23 road from Kennington to Croydon in south London.

The road includes four primary alignments, with the longest stretch measuring 28 kilometers between Felbridge and Clayton, adapting to local terrain features.
