The B1149 is the most direct route between the town of Holt and the city of Norwich in the county of Norfolk, England.〔County A to Z Atlas, Street & Road maps Norfolk, ISBN 978-1-84348-614-5〕 There is no direct A-road alternative. The road joins the A140 north of Norwich at a traffic island close to Norwich International Airport. From north to south the road passes through: *Edgefield *Saxthorpe *Corpusty *Horsford ==History== The route of the B1149 can be seen clearly on Faden’s large-scale map (at one inch to the mile) of the county of Norfolk of 1779,〔Faden’s Map of Norfolk 1797, Digitally redrawn in 2005 by Andrew Macnair. North Central Map ISBN 978-0-9550398-2-9〕 which shows that this road’s route has changed very little over the years, even after the Parliamentary Enclosure of the early 19th century. On this early map the road is labeled as the Norwich–to–Cley next the Sea road,〔() Faden’s Map Digitally redrawn〕 indicating the road's importance farther back to the 13th century, when Cley was a busy seaport. The road would have been used by the wealthy merchants of Norwich to transport their goods to the port, where a healthy trade was carried out between Norfolk and the Low Countries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「B1149 road」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
